# Profile Configuration - Amazon Marketplace Plus

![PrestaShop Amazon Marketplace Profiles](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/prestashop-amazon-marketplace-_1a8ak2l.jpg)

Profiles are used for [product creation](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/creating-new-products-amazon-marketplace-plus-5evxbs/).  
They allow you to assign common characteristics to products so they match Amazon’s expected structure.

A single profile can apply to multiple [categories](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/categories-tab-amazon-marketplace-plus-1u6e0ok/) in PrestaShop.  
However, **a category can only be linked to one profile**. The information set in the profile will be applied to all linked products.

|| Before creating profiles, please first update the table of valid Amazon values in the [Tools](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/tools-tab-amazon-marketplace-plus-1522fro/) tab.
---

## Profile Name

Choose a clear and descriptive name related to the type of products exported (e.g. *Skirts – Women*).

---

## Product Type

The **Product Type** defines the required and optional fields expected by Amazon.  
Select it from the list or search for it.

Example: for a T-shirt profile, choose **SHIRT**.

![Product type](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/screenshot1869_16qi3rh.jpg)

If the fields do not appear, click the circular refresh icon beside the Product Type to load them again.

||| ⚠️ Note: Clicking the refresh icon on an existing profile will reset the fields already configured.
---

## Product Type Fields

After selecting a product type, a list of fields will appear:

![List of mapping fields](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/screenshot1234_4s5ouc.jpg)

||| **⚠️ Important:** At this stage, the profile is not complete yet. Amazon determines required fields dynamically, so not all required fields are shown here. ➡️ The missing fields will appear in the Amazon report after your first submission, and you’ll need to add them to the profile.

---

### Variant

A **variant** in Amazon corresponds to a PrestaShop combination (e.g. size, color).  
Select the relevant attributes in the *Variant* section.

Example for size/color:  
![Variant fields](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/screenshot1870_1jxfwve.jpg)

| The *Variant* field is only needed if the category linked to this profile has combinations.

||| If a variant attribute like **SIZE** does not appear in the profile, add it from the [Optional Available Fields](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/profile-configuration-amazon-marketplace-plus-sa58xn/?bust=1775207091859#3-adding-optional-fields) tab on the right.

![Example size variant](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/screenshot1871_6rnbrg.jpg)

---

### Required Field Mappings

Fill the **required fields** using:

* A corresponding PrestaShop field  
* An Amazon fixed value (Allowed Value)  
* A default fixed value (Default Value)

![Example profile fields](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/screenshot1872_557v8i.jpg)

Two common cases:

1. All products share the same value (e.g. Department = Women) → use a fixed value  
2. The value varies by product → use a matching PrestaShop field (attribute or feature)  
   Example: if not all products share the same brand, select the corresponding PrestaShop field, usually the **manufacturer**

||| ⚠️ Note: Even if all visible required fields are filled, Amazon still requests additional fields after the first submission. ➡️ Always check the report and complete the profile step by step.

| If you set a [Key Features Strategy](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/profile-configuration-amazon-marketplace-plus-sa58xn/#2-key-features-strategy) (see below), you do not need to fill the “Key Product Features” required fields.

### Adding Optional Fields

After sending products in [creation mode](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/creating-new-products-amazon-marketplace-plus-5evxbs/), please verify the [report](https://doc.common-services.com/en/article/generating-the-report-amazon-marketplace-plus-ql3ave/) and the missing fields using this tool:

1. Click **Load**
2. Search for the field
3. Click the green **+** icon to add it

![Add field](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/-/3/f/a/8/3fa8ee645cd13200/screenshot1873_duc9nj.jpg)
