What do the Rejected Offers statistics from the Products Stats section refer to?

Rejected offers are those products from your datafeed that could not be correctly imported because of some missing or incorrect information. The causes that may lead to the rejection of offers are:

- Offers without category - offers for which the Category field is not defined in the datafeed;

- Offers without valid URL - offers for which the Product URL field is not defined or does not have a valid value in the datafeed (the URL does not open a valid page or is not completely provided in the datafeed; please make sure that your URLs include the http:// protocol at the beginning);

- Offers without valid price - offers for which the Price field does not have a valid value in the datafeed (the price is 0 or not available in the datafeed);

- Offers without product name - offers for which the Product Name field is not defined in the datafeed;

- Offers without product code (MPC) - offers for which the Product Code field (MPC - Merchant Product Code) is not defined in the datafeed;

- Duplicate Offers - offers that have the same value in the Product code field (MPC - Merchant Product Code);

- Offers without bids - offers for which you have not set active bids; please make sure that all your bids are Active and that their value is at least equal to the minimum accepted value for the corresponding category;

- Offers without image URL - offers for which the Image URL field is not defined or does not have a valid value in the datafeed (the URL does not open a valid page or is not completely provided in the datafeed; please make sure that your URLs include the http:// protocol at the beginning);

- Restricted keywords - offers that include legally protected or prohibited keywords;

- Offers with invalid price format - offers with price provided in an invalid format (the decimal separator is not used consistently in the datafeed; you have to use the same separator, comma or decimal dot, for all the prices in the datafeed);

- Offers that cannot be listed on the site - offers that cannot be listed on our site because of the type of products they represent;

- Offers with inconsistent data - offers for which the associated data differs to a great extent from other similar offers;

- Offers without GTIN code - offers from the "Books" category, for which the GTIN field is not defined in the datafeed (you should include the ISBN code for each product).

Some of these errors occur because the product description expands through several lines. When you create the datafeed, make sure you replace the new lines \n or \r in the descriptions with space or <br />
