Hello, i tried uploading my csv. file and got Abandoned Job: Abandoning Job error.
Some of them ive got in past, but managed fixing problems, now its difficuilt.
Can you make more error codes in future to avoid getting Abandoned job as error, which doesnt give any information? Thankyou (:

File Exchange Abandoned request

Abandoned job error usually occurs because the Action verb is mispelled or not capitialized correctly.

 

For instance, Verifyadd, and Verify Add, are both incorrect. It must be VerifyAdd. You also might delete any info lines from the template before you create the csv file for upload to eBay.

 

It is rare when using a template, but if you have opened the template in a word processing program, linefeeds may have been inserted in one of the column headers. Open the csv file in NotePad, and look for small black squares in the file. That indicates control characters. Exit, and reopen the file in your spreadsheet. Delete that column header and retype.

 

Make sure you have used a correct Action statement. For the UK, this would be (no spaces) -

Action(SiteID=UK|Country=GB|Currency=GBP|Version=745|CC=UTF-8)

 

Lastly, make sure that, if you are defining Variations, that the Action verb (Add, VerifyAdd) is on the parent line. Do not place these on the child lines.
