Listing View Modes
M2E Pro Listings feature four Amazon Listing View Modes. They are Amazon View Mode, Setting View Mode, Seller Central View Mode, and Magento View Mode. These modes allow you to view and manage the Product data from different perspectives.
To find Amazon Listing View Modes, go to Amazon Integration > Listings. At the top of the Products list, you will see all the View Modes. To switch between them, use the drop-down menu:
- Amazon View Mode - displays the main Amazon Product information. It lets you manage listed and unlisted items on Amazon, as well as ASIN/ISBN-related data.
- Settings View Mode - allows you to review the basic Product data, adjust the Policy settings defined for each Product, and move selected Listing Products to a different M2E Pro Listing.
