Overview
The Products section in Dropship Suppliers gives you access to the product data you’ve shared with connected retailers. From here, you can review and export item-level details, manage merchandising proposals, and update inventory or product attributes using file imports or integrations.
The dashboard is organized into three sections: Review & Export, Merchandise, and Import - each designed to streamline specific aspects of product management.
