Overview
When posting and updating products to channels, you should make sure they have the minimum information required by the channel filled out and that your channel accounts are fully integrated. Once a product is launched, you can manage and update listing specifics, price, inventory and more, to the extent allowed by the channel.

- Go to the Manage inventory page and open the Advanced Search tab.
- Each channel has a filter with different status related to the product readiness and listing status.
- Select the Posted and Active filter. Be aware that the search results return listings that are on the channels’ Active Listing Report that SellerCloud has received from the channel. SellerCloud periodically runs a service that looks at products on the reports and marks them as Posted and Active, etc. Therefore, you may have products that have been recently posted but will not be included in the Posted and Active search results.
To export a report on which channels products are currently listed:
- Navigate to the Manage Inventory page.
- Select products.
- Select action Export Listed on Channel.
The export will display in a spreadsheet with headers for the Product ID and the channels that are enabled. the Product ID column will contain Parent SKUs only. The rest of the cells will have the SKUs that are listed on the channel, whether parent or shadow. See a sample spreadsheet shown in the table below.
