- Unlimited multiple marketplaces, including Amazon, eBay, Google, and Walmart.
- A powerful bulk editing interface in Multi-edit Mode for sorting and multiple layers of filtering.
- Additional flexibility with Attribute Mapping, and allowing you to enable Product Specific Attributes.
The process can be summarized in the following phases:
- Uninstalling Amazon by Codisto (Sales Channel)

Linking Existing Listings - can be done by going to Settings > Link Existing Listings.
Ensure you have as many product identifiers as you can to match up between the Shopify products and Amazon listings. Codisto can make the linking process much easier by putting the Amazon listings into the High-Confidence or Medium-Confidence match groups. Alternatively, the linking can be done on a per-item basis.

Important reminder on Linking!
Linking an Amazon listing to a Shopify product will create sync between the following offer (only) information:
- Amazon listing information will remain intact
- Price on Codisto will adopt the Price on the Amazon listing upon linking, the Price Operator will be set to (Fixed) Constant Price
- Inventory on Codisto will be set to Web Quantity (Inventory Level) to match what's on Shopify
- For Shipping Templates, input the exact name under the Shipping Group field and check the Handling/Dispatch Time is set correctly
- Offer Sync will be set to Enabled (Active)
- Send Listing Details will be set to Off (Offer Only)
Linking existing listings is done on the variant level, so you may find the items on the grid set to disabled even after linking them - please remember what you see on the grid applies to the parent item. If you wish to confirm that the link was successful, please click on the (+) button beside the item's SKU to show the variants' Offer Sync status. A successful link will also adopt the ASIN of the listing they were linked to.
Additionally, you may use the Offer Status column filter to pick out items on the grid which have the Parent Disabled/Child (variants) Enabled.
