Epicor ERP to Amazon: Steps to Crafting the Perfect Product Feed
Creating a product feed from your Epicor enterprise resource planning (ERP) system to Amazon can be a daunting task with many variables to consider. Luckily, with the right steps and guidance, creating a product feed from your ERP to Amazon can be an easily achievable goal.
The first step is to collect the necessary information from your ERP system. This includes obtaining the product’s Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) number, Universal Product Code (UPC) number, product name, price, description, images, and other relevant information. Once you have all the necessary product data, you can create a spreadsheet to easily import all the information into Amazon.
Next, you need to format the data in Amazon’s required product feed template. This template describes the exact structure that Amazon requires for product feeds. Therefore, it is important that the data is properly formatted. The product feed contains the product data, including product image, title and description, as well as other relevant information.
Once you have successfully uploaded the spreadsheet to Amazon, Amazon will analyze the data and display it on the Amazon Marketplace. If there are problems with the product data, Amazon issues an informative error message. It’s important to review each error message carefully, as some are harder to fix than others.
Finally, you should test the product feed once it’s live to make sure the data is displaying correctly and the feed is working properly. If the test passes, your product feed is now ready to go live.
Creating a product feed from your ERP to Amazon requires careful planning and preparation, but with the right steps, you’ll have a successful product feed in no time. By following the tips in this article, you can easily create a product feed from your ERP to Amazon and be ready to start selling on the world’s largest marketplace.
