Opening the workspace without exposing workbook contents.
Seller Central is the first-party system and remains the final authority for listing submission, catalog status, and support cases. SKUFix is an independent preflight and repair utility that works before the seller uploads again. It does not replace Seller Central.

Catalog authority problems cannot be solved by changing a spreadsheet alone.
Amazon offers spreadsheet workflows for matching, creating, and updating listings in bulk. The seller downloads the appropriate template, enters product and offer information, uploads it, and reviews the processing outcome.
SKUFix operates between the failed outcome and the next upload. It maps errors to the workbook, classifies what software can and cannot repair, and creates a separate output for review.
Editing a single known listing directly in Seller Central can be simpler than preparing another bulk file. The file workflow becomes more valuable when many SKUs, repeated attributes, or variation families need consistent treatment.
Brand, identifier, contribution, eligibility, and shared-ASIN conflicts can persist even when the workbook is technically correct. SKUFix labels those issues for seller or support action instead of repeatedly rewriting the file.
No. The seller reviews and uploads the output in Seller Central.
Direct editing is practical for isolated changes. A workbook is more efficient when many listings or related variation rows need coordinated updates.
No. It can organize evidence, but catalog authority and support decisions remain with Amazon.
