Using this data for Linnworks and other multichannel software
Exporting this data from eBay can allow you to start creating an inventory file for your multichannel software.
We recommend you download both the “Standard” export and the “File Exchange – Add unique identifiers” export as this will give you the most data. Remember the Custom Label field is typically where the item SKU is held on eBay and used in linking listings to your linnworks inventory for stock control, so in a nutshell, this is the field you will be using for your SKU.
