Hello everyone,I use Seller Hub Reports (upload templates / File Exchange) for new fixed-price listings with variations (Multi‑SKU).Goal: Create several separate variation listings in one upload file (i.e. 2× parent + the respective child rows underneath) to save time.What works:Multiple single listings without variations in one CSV file → upload works (only warnings about Business Policies).Result: 2 listings are created, 2 ItemIDs in the report.What does NOT work:Multiple variation listings (parent/variation) in one file (tested with XLSX and CSV) → upload fails.Report shows errors: 21916664 | 21916639“The entered variation specifics do not match … / The variation-specific value used for pictures ‘DX4941 – …’ is not present in the variation-specific set”In this case, the row (CustomLabel) refers to the first parent (e.g. DX4931), but the error names a variation designation from the second parent (e.g. DX4941).It seems as if eBay, during upload, correctly processes only the first variation block and incorrectly assigns the second parent block to the first listing.Questions:Is there a known limitation that only one variation listing is allowed per upload file?If it is possible: Which columns/fields must be set so that eBay cleanly separates multiple parent/child blocks? (e.g. Relationship / Relationship details / Item photo URL / Custom label etc.)Is there a recommended alternative (e.g. feed/API) if you want to upload many variation listings in a batch?I can upload the reports/sample file (CSV) and the error report if that helps.Thank you very much!
