Removing Items from a Marketplace in NetSuite

Easily remove items from your marketplace by configuring the storefront flag in NetSuite for effective product management.

·2 min read·View Oracle Docs

To remove an item from being displayed on a marketplace or in a cart within NetSuite, you need to adjust the item's storefront flag field to Remove Item.

Important Considerations

  • The Remove Item setting is effective only when using full product sync. If you're utilizing price and quantity sync, the setting will only cease the syncing of that item, not delete it from the storefront.

Steps to Remove an Item

  1. Access the Item Record: In your NetSuite account, navigate to the item record you wish to edit.
  2. Locate the Storefront Flag Field: Find the field designated for the storefront flag, which serves to control how the item is synchronized with the marketplace.
  3. Set the Flag: Change the value of the storefront flag to Remove Item. This indicates to the system that the item should be removed during the next full product sync process.

Related Flag Values
