Seller Account with Kohls - Kohl's purchases products through dedicated buyers, so you need to contact Kohl's to become an approved seller and establish a connection with a buyer. You would submit a catalog file to the buyer, who then decides what to purchase and negotiates a price. Similar to other fulfillment channels, you do not post items to Kohl's from SellerCloud. Rather, SellerCloud is utilized for inventory and order management.
Commerce Hub Account - To integrate with Kohl's, you need to open an account with CommerceHub.com, the software used by Kohl's for document transmission. SellerCloud connects uses the XML via SFTP connection. You will be assigned a Partner Setup Specialist who will work with SellerCloud Support to integrate your account and get you live on Kohl's.
