Ending sold listings via upload (bulk)?

[svbooks]

For items that sell on other sites, I'm looking for an easy way to remove them from eBay via upload.  In my mind, I envision a simple format like:

Action, eBay Item #

End, 1234567890123

The erroneous online documentation TALKS ABOUT about a report format to remove listings but when I go to download templates (under the Reports tab), the ONLY choice is the Edit Price and Quantity template.  

Ok, so I tested this template and it does work for changing price for example, however if I set the quantity to 0 it gives me an error, and if I try & change the Action from Revise to End (I took a guess on that), I get an error.   So no go.

Any ideas on how to make this simple process work?  Every other site we sell on has upload formats to easily delete/end listings.

(Note: We use SixBit to manage our inventory on eBay, so I'm trying to see if they have a way to do this via import, if so that would solve the problem.)

Your guess is just about right. Below is the old File Exchange CSV format, but it should work for a Seller Hub upload. The action to end a listing should not require site information.

Action,ItemID

End,123456789012

End,345678901234

End,456789012345

THANKS for pointing me in the right direction and getting me "close".

So it turns out the correct format is:

Action,ItemID,EndCode   -- the ending reason is REQUIRED

End,123456789012,NotAvailable

This WORKED!!  So simple.  I was able to find the OLD File Exchange Advanced Instructions .pdf online and that's what let me know to include the EndCode.

Again, appreciated!

Thanks for that tidbit!

I'm glad you got it working.

Seller Hub was designed to accept legacy File Exchange uploads, which are not too different from the new Seller Hub formats. You may want to keep a copy of File Exchange manual version 3.5.4, as most of that is still usable in Seller Hub uploads (at least until they change the types or format of data).
