FAQ - Frequently asked questions

Why do I receive the error “Price Settings Invalid”?

This error occurs when the minimum price, maximum price, and fixed price are not within the desired range.

The maximum price always needs to be higher than the minimum price.

The fixed price needs to either be equal to or within the min/max range.

Why do I receive the error “Duplicate SKUs found”?

SKUs are used as unique identifiers for products. Therefore, a SKU cannot appear more than once within the same file.

To remove duplicates in Microsoft Excel:

  1. Select a cell in the table.
  2. Open the Data tab.
  3. In the Data Tools section, click Remove Duplicates.

This will highlight duplicate SKUs so they can be removed or adjusted.

Why do I receive the error “No SKU found”?

If there are SKUs in the file that are unknown to our system, this error may occur.

This can happen, for example, with an inactive listing.

However, the system will still update prices for all other active products.

  • Title
  • SKU

Why do I receive the error “Number formatting not clear”?

If you receive this error, please check your minimum, maximum, and fixed prices.

Prices must be formatted as numbers with two decimal places.

Another possible reason is the separator used in your CSV file. eSagu requires semicolons (;) as the CSV separator.

There are several ways to change your minimum/maximum prices:

  • Change the minimum/maximum prices directly in each individual item.

  • Change the minimum/maximum prices via CSV import.
  • Change the minimum/maximum prices via API.
  • Change the minimum/maximum prices using an AI chat connected via MCP.

How does the process of customCode programming work?

You develop an idea. You discuss this with your account manager. He will forward it as a software story to our IT department. Our IT department will then evaluate your idea in terms of feasibility, effort and costs and you will receive a cost estimate from your account manager with details of the cost and time required to create your custom code.

I cannot find my "quantity zero" items

Items without stock (quantity zero) are hidden by default, but you can show these items by using the filter "Do not hide quantity 0 items".

What are the 3 most common customCodes?

  • customCode - By sales figures Your prices are optimized according to the sales figures of your items in last 7 days.
  • customCode - exclusion below minimum price Your prices will only be optimised against offers above the minimum price.
  • customCode - Prime first Your items are comparing the price against cheapest Prime offer first. If there are no Prime competitors, items follow normal rules from "Optimization"
