Should I link My Skus When I List The Item Or When It Sells?
You can link the skus to your listing right when you list it for sale or wait until it sells, whichever you prefer!
If you don't link the sku's when you list it, then all orders for those items will show up in your "other orders" tab on Printify and you will need to manually fulfill them at that time.
*However if you don't link the skus right when you list it then here are a few tips *
Make sure to save the files somewhere you will be able to easily access them at a later date
Nothing is worse than being really busy and then not being able to find the design for an order on an item! - | This is one benefit for uploading them to Printify right when you list, so that they are there and ready when/if you get an order
Make sure you still follow the guidelines that are required by our sku linking system when creating your variations so that you don't need to edit the listing to be able to link the skus later!
- Size names need to match exactly what is on Printify like "S" instead of "Small" for shirts
- There needs to be a space between the size and anything else for example "Unisex Shirt S" is good, but "Unsiex-Shirt-S" would not work
- Color names need to match exactly what it says in Printify
- The variation with the sizes needs to have "Size" or "Sizes in the variation name
