Seller Product Ownership Audit
VALUECOMBO β’ MARKETPLACE CONTROL
π Seller Product Ownership Audit
Current Shopify catalog was checked against the VALUECOMBO Seller Product Registry.
Current result
Shopify catalog: Products are present and currently use vendor information such as Dropdash.
VALUECOMBO seller registry: Only the template seller record currently exists.
Product registry: Only the template product record currently exists.
Therefore: Existing Shopify products have not been automatically assigned to a VALUECOMBO seller.
π‘οΈ Safe mapping rule
- Approve the seller and issue a unique Seller Code.
- Map the seller's Shopify Customer ID.
- Confirm the product belongs to that seller.
- Store Shopify Product ID + Variant ID + Inventory Item ID.
- Only then mark the listing as live for marketplace seller routing.
β οΈ Current catalog
Products supplied through Dropdash should not be assigned to a seller code merely because the Shopify vendor field says βDropdashβ. Supplier/vendor and marketplace seller are different concepts.
Next live mapping
When the first real seller is approved, their Seller Code can be mapped to confirmed products without changing unrelated products.
