    Here, the admin can:

    • View the complete list of the Template.
    • Edit or delete the template.
    • Add or create the unlimited number of  Templates.

    Add New Template:

    The admin will be navigated to the eBay Template page when clicks on “Add New Template”.

    eBay Price Rule

    Here, the admin can:

    • Edit – edit the Price Rule details by clicking on them.

    Suppose the price of synced product is 100 and admin has configured –

    • Operation: Increase
    • Price: 10

    Then 10% of 100 will be added to the original price of the product ie; (10 % 100) + 100 = 10+100 = 110.

    Else if admin has configured –

    • Operation Type: Fixed
