How to list faster with business policies

How to update business policies

You can edit, copy, reassign, or delete your policies whenever you choose. If you update a policy, any listings using that policy will automatically be updated with your changes.

There are a few restrictions on revising listings, so it may not be possible to update all your listings with the new policy. In this case, only listings that can be updated with the new information will be changed, and listings that can’t be edited will remain unchanged.

If you want to delete a policy that is currently being used in any active or scheduled listings, you need to reassign new policies to these listings first.

Policies named “Copy of…”

If you change your shipping, payment or return policy, we’ll update all compatible listings associated with that policy to use your new terms.

Any listings that are incompatible with your updated policy terms or are restricted from being revised will no longer have this updated policy applied to them. An automatically generated policy, beginning with “Copy of” will be applied to these incompatible listings. This “Copy of…” policy is a duplicate of your policy before your updates were made, so there will be no contractual changes between you and a buyer for these listings.

How to clean up policies

You can clean up your policies using a special option. In this case the system will:

• Delete policies that aren’t used by any active or recently ended listings
• Give policies more descriptive names (unless you’ve recently renamed them)
