The eBay Item Specifics Mapping optimizes the listing process. On the eBay post, it automatically fills the eBay attributes for each listing individually. Mapping can be based on an existing product value or on a fixed value, defined in Mappings. This allows posting multiple products in different categories together, each one having unique parameters.
Each eBay category can have it's own mapping, relevant to the specific type of the products.
