InstructionsHow to use the information from the Product ClassifierAmazon Confidential. Use of this document is limited to selecting a classification for your Amazon.in listing.OverviewAmazon uses values supplied by sellers to determine where listings are visible on Amazon.in (e.g., Men's Dress Shirts). If a seller does not provide a browse node, then Amazon will assign the product to the root node (the broadest or most general node) for the category (e.g., Clothing). These products tend to perform less well because customers have difficulty finding and comparing them to other listings. Columns Contained in This FileThe second tab of this file contains all the information you need to classify your listings. The following fields are included on this tab:Classification: Each point in the browse path is called a browse node. This column lists the names of each browse node.Node ID: The identification number associated with the specific browse node to which you are assigning your product.Inventory File Template: Specifies which Inventory File Template you should use for a particular product. Using the specified template will ensure that you are providing all the necessary information for listing your product.Classification Field: The column in the Inventory File Template or XML feed that must be populated to assign a listing to a browse node.Valid Values: Used to populate the classification field. In many categories, more than one valid value is acceptable. Multiple values are separated by 'OR,' which indicates that either value is acceptable. For example, the node for 'Bedspreads & Coverlets' might be entered as 'bedspreads OR coverlets.'How to Classify Your ListingsThe fields used by Amazon to classify your listing vary by category and can be limited to a single field or multiple fields. To assign a listing to a browse node, you must provide values for all the classification fields corresponding to the category you selected. These values then should be added to your inventory file or XML feed.ItemType: Describes what your product is. You may be selling televisions, teacups, or pickles.TargetAudience and DepartmentName: Describe who uses your product. You may be selling ties for men, hosiery for women, or collars for dogs.UsedFor: Describes the context for which your product is designed. You may be selling sofas for the living room, paint brushes for trim work, or sewing needles for silk.Refinement InstructionsWhen you use the Product Classifier, the resulting classification list includes an appropriate set of refinements for each product.
