Why is compatibility important?
Adding vehicle compatibility information through the Part Finder is a great way to make sure that your customers buy the parts they need. We strongly recommend that you include this information in your listings to ensure accurate search results which will, in turn, result in a potential increase in the conversion rate and better customer experience.
How do I add compatibility information to my listings?
a) One listing at a time
In the Seller Central or Vendor Central navigation menu, click "Inventory" and then "Manage Part Finder". Click "Add ASIN" and follow the instructions. Use an inventory template to add compatibility information to your listing.
b) Listing several products at once
i) See the Master Vehicle List to search for KTypes
