- In order to edit variations via Template in Seller Central, click on the “Add a Product” from the “Inventory” tab Drop Down Menu on the top menu of Seller Central.
- Click on the link saying “Download an Inventory File”.
- On the next page, scroll down to the header “Inventory Files” and click on the “Category-Specific Inventory Files” link.
- In the Pop-Up Window under the “Choose a File Template” Section, click on the “Template for Specific Categories” Link and then click on the relevant Category for which you are editing the variations on the next page.
- Make sure that you complete all the information for the Parent ASIN as before and then fill in the relevant new information under the “Variations” section in as many cells as you can.
- Only via this template can you edit or change the Variation Theme.
- It is now vital for you to select the “Update” or “Partial Update” item from the Drop Down Menu provided in the “Update Delete” Field on the sheet.
- This way, Amazon’s systems will know to only update the newly entered information and not replace all other fields with nothing if you have left some fields incomplete.
- If in doubt, make sure that you fill in all information in all the “required” cells, remembering that some previously not required cells may become required by being highlighted by a red border.
- Be reminded that you need to save this file in .txt format before uploading it under the “Check and Upload Your Inventory File” tab on the “Add Products Via Upload” Page.
