Please make sure that you selected the right Magento Attribute for UPC/EAN option in Description Policy and provided a valid barcode value for that Attribute.

You are not authorized to list Products using the Brand value you specified. Please provide a valid value and try again.

You cannot sell products that are private ownership of the particular seller or company unless you are an authorized seller.

You can contact Amazon to receive approval for listing products under this brand.

The required attributes "__" are missing. Please set the values for the mentioned attributes and try again.

The error is returned by Amazon API when some Item Specifics are missing. 

You need to define all Specifics that are required for the selected Amazon Category and Product Type. Please navigate to a relevant Description Policy to complete the settings, then list your product.

The value provided for one of the specifics is empty or invalid. Please set the correct values for all specifics or use different SKU for creating a new product.

Please make sure that Magento Attributes, selected in the Item Specifics, contain valid values.

Review your Item Specifics under Amazon > Configuration > Policies > Description Policy > Specifics and check the relevant Magento Attribute values in your product.

UPC/ASIN/ISBN provided in Search Settings is not found on Amazon. Please set Description Policy to create New ASIN/ISBN.

No matches were found for your product in the Amazon catalog based on the provided Search Settings.

Please make sure that you provided a valid product identifier. Otherwise, you need to create a new ASIN/ISBN to list the product on the website. Follow the instructions in this article.

SKU does not match any ASIN and the product data provided is not eligible for ASIN creation.

The error is returned by Amazon API if your product data is not eligible for a new ASIN creation.

Please make sure that your product identifier is valid for this particular product and provided in a correct format, i.e. 12-digit UPC, 12 or 13-digit EAN, 10 or 13-digit ISBN.

Otherwise, please contact Amazon to clarify which data contradicts their rules.

You may email M2E Pro Support to get the product data report that is submitted during the List action. It can be included in your Amazon request for completeness.

You are using UPCs, EANs, ISBNs, ASINs, or JAN codes that do not match the products you are trying to list.

Using incorrect UPCs, EANs, ISBNs, ASINs or JAN codes is prohibited and it can result in your ASIN creation privileges being suspended or permanently removed. Please ensure you are always using the appropriate UPC, EAN, ISBN, ASIN or JAN code when listing a product.

Value that was set to the Specific has length __ but allowed maximum length is "50". Please, enter a valid value and try again.

Amazon API limits the maximum length of the Specific names to 50 characters. 

To prevent the error, please shorten the Specific name to meet Amazon requirements.

If the products are different, please edit SKU of the corresponding Magento Products or enable SKU modification option in the Listing Settings.

Product with the same SKU is found in M2E Pro Unmanaged Listing. Please change the SKU or enable the Option Generate Merchant SKU.

To resolve the issue, you can:

  • provide a valid UPC/EAN value in Magento Attribute selected in Description Policy;

  • select a different Magento Attribute for UPC/EAN option in Description Policy;

  • set up the Product ID Override option in Description Policy if your product does not have global trade identifiers. To use this option, you have to get approval from Amazon.

To do it, please navigate to M2E Pro Listing and click Manage Variations next to the relevant Listing Product. Once it is done, you can apply the List action.

The Description data provided for current SKU has a technical conflict with data of Amazon Catalog for the Product with ASIN/ISBN "Example_Amazon_ASIN".

The following is the values that are conflicting: item_id (Merchant: "Example_Merchant_ASIN" / Amazon: "Example_Amazon_ASIN" ). If your product corresponds to this ASIN/ISBN, please modify your data to reflect the Amazon Catalog values. Otherwise, check that your value(s) for "standard_product_id" are correct.

During the List of your product, Amazon Product with ASIN/ISBN "Example_Amazon_ASIN" was found based on your Search Settings. But your value for ASIN attribute does not match the Amazon one: Merchant: "Example_Merchant_ASIN" / Amazon: "Example_Amazon_ASIN".

If your product corresponds to this Amazon product, you should edit your ASIN value in accordance with Amazon data.

Otherwise, check your Product ID or adjust your Search Settings.

You are submitting the UPC/EAN value that does not match the identity attribute stored in Amazon catalog for this SKU.

The identity attribute (UPC/EAN) is tied to ASIN when the Product is uploaded to the Amazon catalog and cannot be changed. Please edit your Product ID in accordance with the actual UPC/EAN for this particular ASIN. Otherwise, create a new SKU with the updated identity attribute. For more information, see: http://sellercentral.amazon.it/gp/help/23191

The error arises when your product identifier does not correspond to the UPC/EAN associated with this particular ASIN.

To assign the product to this ASIN, you should edit your product UPC/EAN in accordance with Amazon data. Otherwise, you can list your product under a new ASIN.

M2E Pro did not use New ASIN/ISBN Creation feature assigned because settings for ASIN/ISBN Search were specified in Listing Search Settings and a value "__" was set in Magento Attribute for that Product.



This warning appears to inform you that the New ASIN/ISBN creation functionality was disregarded because the Search Settings are enabled and the UPC/EAN value is provided. 

If your product is new and does not exist in Amazon Catalog yet, you can list it under a new ASIN and the Search Settings should be disabled. 

If this Product is presented in the Amazon Catalog, you should adjust Search Settings to find existing Amazon ASIN and list your product under the existing ASIN.
