Product Mapping & Setup

This phase connects your internal SKUs to Trendyol’s marketplace catalog. Proper product mapping is essential to sync inventory, manage listings, and process orders.

Understanding Product Mapping

Product mapping creates a relationship between:

• Your SKU (internal identifier)
• Trendyol Product ID (external identifier)
• Inventory Location
• Pricing
• Selling Status (Active/Inactive)

Types of Mapping:

1. Manual Mapping (for precision or missed SKUs)
2. Bulk Mapping (via CSV/XLSX upload)

Manual Mapping Process

1. Navigate to Products → Channel Mapping in the left-hand navigation menu.
2. Click the kebab menu (three-vertical-dots icon) and select Trendyol under Demand.
3. Click the Product ID field to enter the marketplace identifier.
4. Activate each SKU in the Status column once mapping is done.
5. (Optional) Specify Buffer Stock, toggle Status to Active, and click Save (✓). Buffer stock prevents overselling by holding back the specified quantity.

Bulk Mapping Process

1. On Products → Channel Mapping, select Bulk Map.

2. Upload your CSV or XLSX file.

3. To view logs, click the three-dot menu next to Bulk Map and choose Bulk Mapping History.

4. Activate mapped SKUs in the Status column.
