I have 5 Variations with up to 5 options for each variation (Top-Size, Bottom-Size, Back-Cut, etc.). If I follow the examples that I find in eBay's documentation and forums I only find examples with 2 Variations. I can get any of my Variations to work perfectly if I limit it to 2. If I try to add a Third it gives an error on upload.
I'm guessing I don't have a handle on the correct way to add more than 2 Variations. Here is what I use for 2 Variations and it works perfectly.

When I add a third Variation it causes an error/failure. (I fill all the other fields correctly like price, quantity, etc.). I think I only need an example to follow or an explanation on what I'm not understanding.

When you have three droplists (variation attributes), every combination that will be available for purchase must include a value (option) from each droplist.
Relationship | RelationshipDetails |
Top-Size=XL;L|Bottom-Size=XS|Bra Pads=Yes;No | |
Variation | Top-Size=XL|Bottom-Size=XS|Bra Pads=Yes |
Variation | Top-Size=XL|Bottom-Size=XS|Bra Pads=No |
Variation | Top-Size=L|Bottom-Size=XS|Bra Pads=Yes |
Variation | Top-Size=L|Bottom-Size=XS|Bra Pads=No |

Another way to approach this is to double up on the tops, listing with and without pads.
Relationship | RelationshipDetails |
Bottom Size=S|Top Size=L;L with pads;XL;XL with pads | |
Variation | Bottom Size=S|Top Size=L |
Variation | Bottom Size=S|Top Size=L with pads |
Variation | Bottom Size=S|Top Size=XL |
Variation | Bottom Size=S|Top Size=XL with pads |

Oh my gosh, I missed that tool completely. Ebay limits have put a kabosh on the number of variation attributes I can use, (3 vs 5) but I'll get that limit raised soon enough and all will be good. You need a button for donations. Thank you for being an invaluable member to the world of eBay.
