This article details the information we import from Walmart into Solid Commerce.
IMPORTANT!
When we submit inventory updates to Walmart, they require that we send the Fulfillment Lag Time, Version, and Product ID Type. However, Walmart doesn't make these fields available to us when we import listings.
That means that you will need to upload the Fulfillment Lag Time into Solid Commerce. Setting the Default automation status to Start NOT Automated gives you time to upload your Fulfillment Lag Time, Version, and Product ID Type values to Solid Commerce.
Before you use the Update Listings button to update listing information, you also need to enter any other required walmart attr: fields. These walmart attr: fields aren't required for automated inventory and price updates, only updates to other listing details or relisting items. To see which walmart attr: fields are required, please see Listing to Walmart (Creating New Listings and Adding Yourself to Existing Listings).
Once you have uploaded the Fulfillment Lag Time, Version, and Product ID Type, you are ready to turn the automation on for your listings. To do so go to your Walmart Market List, select all of your listings, and click the Start Automation button. Just don't use the Update Listings button until you add all of the required walmart:attr fields.
