Inventory import workbench
Help sellers bring in larger catalogs with field mapping, quality repair, category routing, team review, and controlled publishing.
Publish review
Review every row state before the batch goes live
The import workbench separates rows that can publish from rows that need proof, duplicate review, policy review, draft cleanup, or hub intake.
94 ready
Rows have mapped categories, prices, photos, condition notes, fulfillment, returns, and seller approval.
Publish together or stagger
21 need proof
Missing certificate, serial, size tag, controller test, measurement, or packaging evidence.
Repair before search
7 duplicate checks
Possible duplicate SKU, cert number, image, or near-identical item title.
Merge or split rows
3 policy risks
Restricted phrasing, unclear authenticity, or service terms need review before buyer visibility.
Paused from publish
10 draft cleanup
Weak titles, missing attributes, quantity mismatch, or price fields need seller edits.
Return to draft
13 hub intake
High-value or proof-light items need counter photos, custody notes, and handoff choice.
Route to item checks
Category repairs
Repair prompts change by category
The same CSV import can produce different repair prompts depending on what the buyer needs to trust the item.
Trading cards
Cert number, slab front/back, corners, surface notes, grade, reserve, and sealed-pack photos.
9 rows need cert proof
GPUs and electronics
Serial area, port closeups, benchmark note, accessory count, packing proof, and warranty note.
5 rows need serial proof
Sneakers and apparel
Size tag, soles, box label, measurements, flaw photos, and return-setting confirmation.

Retro games
Power test, controller test, cartridge slot, accessory count, box condition, and region details.
3 rows need test notes
Local pickup items
Dimensions, weight, pickup window, release note, handling warning, and no-show terms.

Creator, edition, measurements, condition, fragile packing, provenance notes, and close-up photos.
8 rows need details
Column Mapping
- Seller columns map to title, category, price, quantity, condition, photos, fulfillment, return setting, and item specifics.
- Category templates fill required fields for cards, GPUs, sneakers, retro games, art, books, auto, garden, home, and pickup.
- Mapping presets let repeat sellers reuse clean import rules.
Error Repair
- Rows flag missing cert photos, serial proof, measurements, fitment, condition notes, restricted terms, and weak titles.
- Repair actions can apply to one row, a filtered group, or a full batch.
- Blocked rows stay out of search, auctions, timed drops, and seller growth placement.
Team Review
- Owner, listing manager, photographer, pricing lead, and hub coordinator roles can review different steps.
- Approval notes explain who changed price, category, photos, hub routing, and publish status.
- Seller teams need role limits before a high-volume batch can go live.
Hub Routing
- High-value, fragile, bulky, or proof-light items can route to hub intake before publishing.
- Hub routing attaches intake checklist, photo needs, packing notes, and pickup or shipment preference.
- Local event items can move from import repair into timed-drop review.
Publish Controls
- Publish ready rows, save repair rows, schedule auctions, stagger fresh listings, or send qualified items to timed drops.
- Bulk edits can adjust price, reserve, quantity, pickup choice, return setting, and offer threshold.
- Every publish action should leave a clear audit note for the seller team.
Current Boundary
- This route shows the import workflow without accepting file uploads or storing seller files.
- Launch-ready commerce needs import storage, media processing, retry handling, permissions, recovery, and seller notices.
- Large sellers should see exactly why rows are ready, blocked, or routed to review.
