Copy a listing

The Copy listing feature allows you to create a new product detail page using information from an existing listing.

For example, you have three different versions of the same toy. Each version has a different product identifier, such as UPC, EAN, or JAN but shares the same manufacturer, brand name, product description, and target audience. You can create a detail page for one of the product versions and then use the Copy listing feature to quickly create pages for the other two versions. For more information, refer to the table below.
