Post Variations

Walmart Marketplace works with variation products differently from most other channels:

1. Sellercloud posts variation child SKUs individually; they are only linked by the variation tag.

To post a variation product on Walmart Marketplace:

1. Create a Variation Product.
2. Prepare the variation parent and all child SKUs.
3. Go to the Product Details Page of the variation parent.
4. Click Toolbox and select Walmart Marketplace.
5. Click Edit.
6. In the Listing Details panel, click the icon next to Attributes.
   
7. Select the Walmart Marketplace Parent Category, Child Category, and Product Type. These values are required by Walmart and will determine which attributes you will need to configure.
   
8. Optionally, depending on your product, you may also want to check:
   1. Is Rigid Plastic Packaging Container (RPPC)?
   2. Contains Chemical, Aerosol Or Pesticide?
   3. Contains Electronic Component?
   4. Are Batteries Required?
9. Click Next.
10. Next, the list of attributes associated with the selected category and product type will appear. Uncheck Show Required Attributes Only to see all attributes.
11. Check the Variation boxes to send specific attributes as Variation Dimensions.
    
12. Click Next to configure the dimension values for each product variation. 
13. Configure the dimension values for each product variation and click Finish.
    
14. Post the Variation Parent.

Setup By Match

Setup By Match refers to the process of posting listings on Walmart Marketplace using the existing product catalog rather than creating new listings. 

In contrast to the Standard Posting Options, this method allows you to submit products with minimal information, simplifying posting and skipping the rest of the manual data entry. Walmart will then set up your product based on the existing listings of other active sellers.

To prepare products for posting with this method, you must set up the following:

• Walmart Marketplace Enabled
• Walmart Price
• Product Identifier: GTIN, UPC, EAN, or ISBN
• Product Identifier Value
• Shipping Weight
• Condition (In the Listing Details panel on the Walmart Marketplace Properties page, not the Product Details page. Use the header WalmartAPICondition to Bulk-Update this property.)
• (Conditional) Main Image: if the Condition is one of the following, Sellercloud must also send the Main Image URL:
  • Remanufactured
  • Pre-Owned: Like New
  • Pre-Owned: Good
  • Pre-Owned: Fair
  • New with defects

You can post products using Setup by Match individually or in bulk. 

Individually

To post a single product:

1. Go to the Product Details Page.
2. Click Toolbox and select Walmart Properties.
3. Click Actions and select Post using Setup By Match. A message will appear at the bottom of the screen confirming that the feed has been submitted. This feed is different from the regular Add Product feed.
   

In Bulk

To post multiple products: 

1. Go to Catalog > Manage Catalog.
2. Click Add filter and add Walmart Marketplace Statuses. 
3. Click the Walmart Marketplace Statuses filter and set it to Ready for Setup by Match to view only products that are ready to post using this method.
   
4. Select products by checking their boxes.
   
5. Click Actions at the bottom right and select Launch on Walmart Marketplace using Setup by Match.
6. The grid shows the required information for listing your products with this method. Check the Ready to Setup column – if you see a green checkmark, the SKU is ready to post. If there is a red cross, hover over it to see what is missing.
   
7. Click Continue. The feed will only include the products that are Ready to Setup.
