Digital Items


Overview

In Sellercloud, you can easily list your Digital Items, which don’t require physical storage or shipping. This makes them a cost-effective option for your business.

Digital Products can be eBooks and digital publications, music and audio files, software and digital games, online courses and webinars, stock photos, e-tickets and event passes, insurance files, and more.

App Setting EnableDigitalProductsWorkFlow must be enabled for this workflow. Contact Sellercloud Support to ensure that this setting is enabled for your account.
Digital products do not have physical inventory and do not require picking. Therefore, they will not be visible in Skustack.

Manage Digital Items

While you can view the inventory details of the product, the inventory detail summary will not be available. This means the product won’t have a physical inventory available and won’t be marked as sellable or non-sellable.

We recommend enabling the Do not calculate backorders for digital products Client Setting. This will ensure that Digital Products are not included in backorder calculations and prevent potential errors.

You can mark your products as digital individually or in bulk.

Digital Items on Orders

If an order includes digital items, they will be excluded from the shipping process and won’t require a tracking number.

In Shipbridge, digital items will appear grayed out in the Scan and Ship panel, as they can’t be scanned or shipped.
