    Ware zu eBay Fulfillment umlagern

    Now you want to transfer goods to eBay Fulfillment. Follow the same instructions as for any other fulfilment service provider. Just make sure that you use the eBay Fulfillment warehouse as the destination warehouse for the stock transfer.

    Important note: eBay can only associate goods with you and scan them during goods receipt if they have a unique number representing the respective action, i.e. stock transfers or purchase orders. Store this number in the corresponding documents in the template management. Further reading on this topic: Customizing print templates.

    Case 1: Stock transfer

    If you move goods from your own warehouse to the eBay Fulfillment warehouse, print the JFSKU as a bar code on the delivery notes and add them to all packages. To do this, navigate to Admin > Print, email and export templates > Sales documents > Delivery note > Print.

    Barcode (Report.JTL_FID,"EAN128")
or in the old templates

    3. Select your delivery note template set or create a new template set for eBay Fulfillment.
    4. Click Import and select the file downloaded previously. You can further specify when the template should be used. Learn how to do this by reading the section on Templates in the JTL-Wawi documentation.

    Case 2: Purchase order

    If you order goods from your supplier and have them sent directly to the eBay Fulfillment warehouse, you must tell the JFSKU to your supplier, which they must then print on the delivery note.
