Amazon mappings

The Amazon Mapping creates the required and recommended relation between the product fields in Valigara and the Amazon listing attributes, for each category. On the Amazon post, Valigara automatically fills the Amazon attributes according to mappings, for each listing individually. Mapping can be based on an existing product value or on a fixed value, defined in Mappings. 

Mappings save entering the values manually, and allow posting multiple products in different categories together, each one having different values.  Each Amazon category can have it's own mapping, relevant to the specific type of the products.
