Channel Maps are a tool that allows you to create cross-category mappings for a specific marketplace (e.g. Amazon). They are used to simplify the creation of new catalogues and save time.

Advantages of Channel Maps

• Reuse of mappings: You create the mappings (linking Amazon fields with PlentyONE fields) once centrally in the Channel Map.
• Automatic inheritance: All catalogues that you link with this Channel Map automatically inherit the mappings made.
• Time savings: You do not have to create the mappings again for each individual catalogue (product type or sales channel).
