eBay Marketplaces
The eBay Marketplaces page shows the countries your eBay accounts sell on — one row per marketplace. 8 eBay sites are supported: Germany, Austria, Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom and United States.
Each marketplace holds exactly the settings that genuinely differ per country: business policies, currency, price list, location and default category. The customer template for new customers is not among them — it comes from the Customer Template Mapping in the merchantCENTRAL setup, the same for every marketplace.

Fields
The list shows the main columns and is read-only. All settings of a marketplace are edited on the marketplace card — it opens from a row, and New creates a further marketplace there.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Account Code | The eBay account this marketplace belongs to. |
| Code | Country code (e.g. DE, AT). |
| Marketplace Id | The eBay site (e.g. EBAY_DE, EBAY_AT). |
| Enabled | Whether this marketplace takes part in synchronisation. |
| Currency Code | Currency used for listings on this marketplace. |
| Policies Complete | Green when all three business policies are set — without them no listing can be published. |
| Sub-Account Code | Code under which items and orders of this marketplace appear in merchantCENTRAL. |
| Last Order Import | Last order import. The import reads the orders once per account and records the time on all active marketplaces of the account. |

Tips
Same item, two countries
The same item on DE and AT is two separate eBay items, each with an SKU of its own (e.g. 4711-DE and 4711-AT) and its own offer, because eBay allows an SKU on one marketplace only. The connector keeps them apart as separate sales channels via the sub-account code — each with its own price list and currency (see eBay SKU per country).
Stock in several countries
Every country reports the full available quantity to eBay. If you list the same item in several countries, split the stock with Quantity Percentage or Safety Stock on the marketplace item to avoid overselling (stock per country).
Policies are mandatory
A marketplace without complete business policies (fulfillment, payment, return) cannot publish listings. The Policies Complete column shows the state at a glance.
The location as fallback for the stock reported to eBay
The hub calculates the quantity reported to eBay with the locations of the marketplace item: first the locations maintained there, then its location code. Only when the item names no location does the marketplace's location (set in the setup wizard) apply; if that is empty as well, all locations count. It does not set the location on the sales lines of imported orders; Business Central sets that as usual, for example from the customer card.
