To manage your variations, make sure to fill in the following field:
- submitterreference: parent identifier (common to all variations of product, located on the "common fields" category).
This field must be left empty for products which have no variations. Do not enter the product unique ID in this field.
And the variation attributes, for example:
- colour: mandatory if the product varies according to colour
- size: mandatory if the product varies according to size
Rakuten only accepts variation (colour/size) for the clothes and home textiles categories.
On Rakuten, Lengow automatically excludes the parent products. A product is considered a parent when the submitterreference (parent ID) is the same as the sellerReference (unique ID).
