# Skipping: - This SKU has been listing on Amazon - Amazon Marketplace Plus

This article explains **why this message appears when sending a product feed in Creation mode**, what it means, and how to resolve it.

---

## Error message

When sending a feed in **Creation mode**, the module may display the following message:

> **“Skipping: – This SKU has been listing on Amazon**

---

## What does this mean?

This message indicates that the **SKU already exists on your Amazon Seller account**.

Amazon does **not allow creating a product with a SKU that already exists on your Amazon Seller account**.

The module detects that this SKU is already present on Amazon and **skips the creation process**.

---

## Is this an error?

❌ **No, this is not a blocking error.**

It is an **informational message** indicating that:
* The product already exists on Amazon
* The product **cannot be created again**
* Creation mode is therefore skipped for this SKU

---

## Common situations where this happens

This message usually appears when:
* The SKU was already created previously on Amazon
* The product was deleted recently from Amazon Seller Central
---

## What should you do?

### Case 1: The product already exists on Amazon 

✔ **No action required**

If the product already exists:
* Do **not** use **Creation mode**
* Use **Matching mode** or **Offer / Price / Stock updates** instead

---

### Case 2: The product was deleted from Amazon

If the product **was deleted from Amazon**, the SKU may still be present in Amazon’s inventory data.

In this case, you must **update the inventory listing data** used by the module.

#### Required action

This cron:

After running this cron:
1. Wait for the task to complete
2. Retry sending the product feed in **Creation mode**
