Overview
Sellercloud helps you create associations between products by adding Related Products to a product profile. These associations are only internal within Sellercloud to reference similar products. If you need to link inventory between related products when updating channel listings, you may refer to Sellercloud Support Team for a custom plugin. In this article, you will learn more about creating and managing your related products.

Products can be configured as “related” to other products. This is typically used as an internal reference that can be used for looking up similar products. You will not be able to scan and ship a related product. You can scan and ship a replacement product. However, using a custom calc/plugin, inventory can be pulled from related products to update a listing on a channel. The custom inventory calculation can be created by the Sellercloud Development team and is subject to customization rates.
