Please refer to the following steps to add a new selling channel for repricing.
1) Authentication:
As a first step, please log in to your ChannelMAX account, click on Selling-->Settings-->Account-->Selling Venues section for the desired selling venues, and then click "Authorize Using LWA" and complete the steps on your Seller Central to auto-update the SP-API token in ChannelMAX. You may obtain the SP-API Auth token as detailed in this link. Please note that ChannelMAX does not need your Amazon Seller Central login email and password.
2) Inventory Import:
When your new account is created, we auto-download your active listings from Amazon Seller Central with the current Amazon price set as Max in ''Repricing''. But, when an additional selling venue is added, we do not auto-download your inventory unless the auto-import option is turned on. You may click on this link to enable import options from Amazon.
3) Floor/Ceiling Setup:
When we auto import your listings from Amazon, your current selling price will be imported and saved in ChannelMAX repricer under the 'Max' column with the Min price missing. For repricing, we need Min price too. Therefore, as soon as the SKUs are downloaded from Amazon, they will not get repriced unless you add an appropriate floor or Cost/Min. Your Min price is controlled based on Floor rule#35 under the ''Settings-->Repricing Model-->Floor/Ceiling'' tab and the Max price is controlled based on Ceiling rule#42.
5) How to create an inventory file?
: SellingVenue value (this column should have value AmazonUS or AmazonUK or AmazonDE or EbayUS etc..)
: ASIN
: MaxSellingPrice
: MinSellingPrice
Once the file is ready in tab-delimited text format, please refer to the following steps to upload this file to ChannelMAX. Once the file is uploaded, inventory can be viewed using the Repricing menu within your ChannelMAX account.
- Open Google Chrome or Firefox
- Login to selling.channelmax.net
- Click on "Inventory-->File Uploader"
- Click on "Analyze This New File"
- Select the .txt file that you have ready and click on "Open"
- Click on the option "Upload File Content To ChannelMAX"
7) Repricing Model
By default, the repricer would work based on the default repricing model setup in your account. If you wish to reprice the SKUs assigned to this new selling venue differently than the default repricer model, you may create a new repricing model under the 'Settings-->Repricing-->Repricing Model' screen and assign the SKUs to this new model created. If you name the repricing model below for each of the newly added selling venues, the repricer will automatically consider the site-specific default model in repricing.

8) Repricer Schedule:
Finally, your repricer schedule needs to be configured under the ''Settings-->Repricing-->Schedules'' page for the selling venue newly connected under "Settings-->Selling Venues" by clicking on the 'Create New Schedule' button.
9) How to check if the repricer is running normally?
Once the repricer is made live by unchecking reprice rule#44a under 'Settings-->Repricing Model', you may view the entries under 'Settings-->Job Process Log' with records '_DONE_' under the Status column for the number of SKUs repriced.
10) How to download the repricer R report to Excel?
Open Google Chrome or Firefox (not IE)
Login to selling.channelmax.net
Click on 'Settings-->Repricing'
Click on 'Run Logs'
Click on the 'R' link, it's the 4th column from the right on the grid
Once clicked on the 'R' link, it will download a file with extension .7z, and save it to a location in your computer.
The file name will be something like nnnn-loginname-RepriceReport-Pnnnn-Snnnnnnn.7z
b. On the 7-zip file that you downloaded from ChannelMAX
c. Choose 'Extract Here' or 'Extract To `folder-name`'
d. Once extracted, you can open the resultant text (.txt) file using Excel
e. Since the number of columns is much more than Excel supports, you will get a warning while opening, ignore the warning.
