Quantity
- Quantity – select the source for product quantity that will be displayed on Amazon:
- Product QTY – quantity displayed on Amazon will be equal to product quantity in Magento.
- Custom Value – quantity specified in the field will be submitted to Amazon.
- Magento Attribute – quantity value will be taken from the selected Magento Attribute.
- Quantity Percentage (available when Product Quantity / Magento Attribute is selected) – quantity displayed on Amazon will be calculated as a percentage of Product Quantity or Magento Attribute value. For example, if QTY Percentage is 80% and Product QTY is 10, the item quantity available on Amazon will be 8.
- Conditional Quantity (available when Product Quantity / Magento Attribute is selected) – specify the maximum and minimum quantity values to be displayed on Amazon.
- Minimum Quantity to Be Listed – e.g. if you have 2 items in stock and the 'Min QTY to be Listed' is 5, the item will not be listed on Amazon.
- Maximum Quantity to Be Listed – e.g. if you have 10 items in stock and want to keep 2 items back, set the 'Max QTY to Be Listed' to 8.

- Product Price – price displayed on Amazon will be equal to the corresponding Magento Product Price.
- Special Price – Special Price of the corresponding Magento Product will be submitted to Amazon.
- Magento Attribute – price value will be taken from the selected Magento Attribute.
You can adjust the initial Price source value using the Price Change field. In this field, you may provide an absolute figure, percentage, or currency rate value.
- Absolute figure – provide a value that you want to increase (add“+” sign) or decrease (add “-” sign) the final item price by. For example, item price is $10. The specified price change is +2, thus, item price on Amazon will be $12. If the specified price change is -4, item price on Amazon will be $6.
- Percentage – provide a percentage value that you want to increase (add “+” sign) or decrease (add “-” sign) the final item price by. For example, item price is $10. The specified price change is +5%, thus, item price on Amazon will be $10.5. If the specified price change is -5%, item price on Amazon will be $9.5.
- Currency rate – provide a value by which the final item price on Amazon will be multiplied. For example, item price is $10. If the specified price change is 1.21, the Price on Amazon will be $12.1.
- Variation Price (only for Magento Bundle Products) – select a price source for item variations:
- Main Product – price value for item variations will be taken from Magento Parent Product.
- Associated Products – price values for item variations will be taken from Magento Child Products.
- Minimum Advertised Price – select the source for the lowest price that a retailer can advertise a product for sale.
- List Price Attribute – provide the source for the product’s list price, excluding tax. List Price is the suggested retail price of a product as provided by a manufacturer, supplier, or seller. This is not the offering or cost price.
- Sale Price – select the source for the discounted item price:
- Product Price – sale price of Amazon item will be equal to the corresponding Magento Product Price.
- Special Price – sale price of Amazon item will be equal to the Special Price of the corresponding Magento Product.
- Magento Attribute – sale price of Amazon item will be taken from selected Magento Attribute value.
If you select a Product Price or Magento Attribute option, you must specify the Start Date and End Date of the Sale Price. Either choose the relevant Magento Attributes or specify the Custom Values.
With Magento Special Price selected, the From and To date values will be taken from the corresponding Magento Product. If the From and To dates are not specified, the Sale Price will be set from this day until the end of the current year.
As soon as the Sale Price expires, the Product Price will be used.
If the Sale Price is active, you will see the discounted values in a Listing grid:
By clicking the Info icon, you can review the Sale Price’s From/To Dates:
- Add VAT Percentage – enable the option to specify a VAT value that will be included in item price on Amazon.
Let’s say the initial item price is $123.00. The specified VAT rate is 19%. Thus, the item will be listed on the Channel with a price of $146.37.
