Assign existing ASIN/ISBN

When you list Multi-Variational i Item via M2E Pro, Magento Parent product Product is matched with existing products in the Amazon catalog and, is assigned to the appropriate ASIN/ISBN. You need to match Magento and Amazon attributes in order to locate ASIN/ISBN for the product.

...

Note

Please remember that Parent product is not added to your Amazon Inventory if you list Magento Variational product Product under existing ASIN/ISBN.

You also need to ensure the number of attribute values is the same for Magento and Amazon productsProducts. If it is different, you can create virtual attribute so M2E Pro displays your product correctly on the Channel. Find several examples below:

  • Magento product Product has fewer attributes than Amazon productProduct

Let`s say your Magento product Product varies by attribute ‘Color’, whereas the corresponding Amazon product Product contains two variational attributes Color’ and ‘Size’. 

In this case, you need to select the value that does not exist in the Magento product Product (‘Size’). M2E Pro will virtualize the ‘Size’ attribute. On Amazon, this product will be available with attribute ‘Color’ and selected ‘Size’ option.

Note

Magento product`s Product`s variations will be available only in a combination with the selected option of the virtual attribute.

  • Magento product Product has more attributes than Amazon productProduct

Let`s say your Magento product Product varies by attributes ‘Color, ‘Size’, and ‘Material’ whereas the corresponding Amazon product Product contains only two variational attributes Color’ and ‘Size’.  

In this case, you need to select the value that does not exist in the Amazon product Product (‘Material’). M2E Pro will virtualize the ‘Material’ attribute. On Amazon, this product will be available with attributes: ‘Color, ‘Size’, and selected ‘Material’ option.

Note

Once selected, the virtual attribute cannot be changed.

Create new ASIN/ISBN

If no corresponding ASIN/ISBN exists in Amazon catalog yet, you can create a new ASIN/ISBN for your product. For this, add the Description Policy with the New ASIN/ISBN creation option enabled and indicate the attribute for UPC/EAN

Tip

In case the product you sell does not imply UPC/EAN (e.g. handmade, private-label) and you have Amazon approval for listing products without Product Identifiers, use one of the Product ID Override options in the Description Policy.


Info

You can create the Description Policy under Amazon Integration > Configuration > Policies. Read this article for more details.

...

Tip

As a creator, you can generate an unlimited number of new Child products Products for selected Parent product Product and add new options of the Variation Attributes for the Parent productProduct.


Note

As a rule, Amazon strictly regulates the creation of new Attributes for the product. 

If you assign Magento product Product to ASIN/ISBN you created outside the M2E Pro, you are not considered its creator by default. For this, you need to click I am the Creator under Amazon Integration > Listings > M2E Pro > Manage Variations > Settings. 

Once done, M2E Pro will start the verification process. In the Settings tab, you also need to specify the SKU of the Amazon Parent productProduct. When SKU is found, M2E Pro marks it as created by you.

Following the above-mentioned steps, you will easily assign your Multi-Variational products Products to the appropriate ASIN/ISBN via M2E Pro.
