Kaufland Offers
List view of all offers you have at Kaufland. An offer applies to one EAN in one storefront and one condition and carries price, stock, and handling time. Kaufland calls it a unit, hence the field Unit ID.
The list is read-only. Clicking an offer opens its Kaufland Offer card; there it is changed and sent to Kaufland with Upload Offer. Upload Offers in this list uploads several selected offers at once.

Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Unit ID | Unique ID of the offer at Kaufland (id_unit). |
| Storefront | Kaufland storefront (country) the offer is sold in. |
| EAN | EAN/GTIN of the product. |
| Product Title | Title of the product at Kaufland. |
| Offer ID | Your own ID of the offer at Kaufland (id_offer), such as your SKU. Hidden by default. |
| Condition | Condition of the goods (New, Used as New, Refurbished Good, etc.). |
| Price | Your offer price (listing_price) including VAT. With Smart Pricing, Kaufland sells the offer at a price between the minimum price and this price. For an offer of new goods of an item from Business Central, the price synchronization sets it to the price from the sales price list of the sales channel – for a variant, the variant's price; used and refurbished offers and offers without an item keep the price on their card. See Price on the Kaufland Offer card. |
| Current Price | Price at which Kaufland is currently selling the offer, including VAT. With Smart Pricing, it can be below your offer price. |
| Quantity | Quantity that Kaufland sells (color-coded: 5 or more green, 1–4 yellow, 0 or less red). With Auto Sync Inventory, it comes from the merchantCENTRAL inventory calculation; without it, you enter it on the offer's card and send it with Upload Offer. |
| Listing Status | Status of the offer at Kaufland: AVAILABLE = on sale, ONHOLD = paused, INCOMPLETE = data Kaufland needs is missing, such as a shipping group. |
| Live | Whether the offer can currently be bought according to Kaufland (is_live). From this, the import (Import Offers) sets Item Online on the merchantCENTRAL marketplace item: online as soon as an offer for the EAN is live – for an item per storefront channel, only the offers of that storefront count (if there are none for it yet, the item stays unchanged). An offer marked Removed at Kaufland is not live. |
| Removed at Kaufland | Kaufland no longer has the offer, for example because it was deleted in the Seller Portal: a complete import of the storefront no longer returned it, or Kaufland answered Upload Offer, Upload Offers, or a synchronization with "not found". The offer's stock and price are no longer sent; the next import that finds it again brings it back. |
| BC Item No. | Linked item in Business Central. |
| BC Variant Code | Variant of the item to which the offer's EAN belongs; the stock and price of this variant are sent. The import finds item and variant via the EAN (GTIN or barcode item reference). |
| Listing Removed | The item was taken off Kaufland in merchantCENTRAL: there is no longer a Kaufland marketplace item for the offer's storefront. The next inventory synchronization sends stock 0; the offer stops selling until the item is listed again. |
| Auto Sync Inventory | Whether the inventory synchronization sends this offer's stock. New offers of used or refurbished goods come without it – whether imported or created with Create Offer. Independently of this, the switch of the same name in the Kaufland Setup stops every inventory synchronization. |
| Sync Status | Synchronization status: Success, In Progress (marked for sending, for example by a posting), or Error. |
| Last Synced | When the offer was last sent to Kaufland or read from Kaufland. |
Actions
| Action | Description |
|---|---|
| Create Offer | Opens the Create Offer dialog for a new offer. For many products at once: Create Offers in the Kaufland Products list. |
| Import Offers | Reads the offers of the enabled storefronts from Kaufland. See How the Import Works. |
| Sync Stock | Sends the stock from Business Central to Kaufland – for the offers with an item and Auto Sync Inventory. If Auto Sync Inventory is switched off in the Kaufland Setup, the action stops with a message. The message at the end lists the offers sent and always the offers Kaufland refused, plus – if there are any – offers Kaufland no longer has, offers without an item in Business Central, offers with quantity 0 because another offer sells the stock, and requests Kaufland did not answer. The reason for a refusal is shown in Sync Error on the Kaufland Offer card. |
| Sync Prices | Takes the prices from the sales price list of each storefront's sales channel and sends the changed ones to Kaufland – for offers of new goods with an item in Business Central (BC Item No.), for a variant with the variant's price. The message at the end is structured like the inventory one; instead of the offers without an item, it lists the offers without a price. |
| Upload Offers | Uploads price, quantity, handling time, note, minimum price, Kaufland warehouse, and shipping group of the selected offers to Kaufland, as they appear on their cards, plus the manufacturer guarantee from the item attributes (see Manufacturer Guarantee and EU Guarantee Label). Asks first with the number of selected offers; with more than one, a progress dialog shows how far it is. Each offer is uploaded and saved on its own, so a refusal does not stop the others. The message at the end names the offers selected, uploaded, and refused, plus those Kaufland no longer has. A refused offer has Sync Status Error, and the reason is shown in Sync Error on the Kaufland Offer card. An offer Kaufland no longer has is marked Removed at Kaufland. |
| Delete at Kaufland | Deletes the selected offer at Kaufland and in Business Central, after a confirmation that names the offer and its EAN (default No): the offer is no longer sold there and has to be created again. |
| Product Data & Description | Opens the Kaufland Product card of the marketplace item under which the EAN is sold in the offer's storefront: product data, description, images, and the offers for the EAN. If no item is listed under the EAN yet, the EAN Lookup opens instead with EAN, storefront, and linked item – from there, the item is added to Kaufland. |
| Item | Opens the item of Business Central the offer sells. |
Import Offers, Sync Stock, Sync Prices, and Upload Offers do not run while a scheduled task on the offers is running (REFRESH-OFFERS, SYNC-INV-BC, SYNC-PRICES-BC): the action then stops with a message, so that two runs do not work on the same offers and send them twice. Start it again after that run.
How the Import Works
- Storefronts: Kaufland keeps offers per storefront. The import reads the offers of every enabled storefront. If no storefront is configured yet, it reads those of the Default Storefront of the Kaufland Setup; if storefronts are configured but none is enabled, it reads none.
- No longer at Kaufland: Once the import has read a storefront's list completely, every offer of that storefront that was missing from it is marked Removed at Kaufland: it is no longer live, and the inventory and price synchronizations skip it. If a later import finds it again, it is back. If reading a storefront breaks off, nothing is marked as removed for it.
- New offers: Offers of used or refurbished goods come without Auto Sync Inventory – such an offer is a single piece, not the stock of the new item.
- One stock, one offer: If several offers of a storefront have the same item (and the same variant) at the same location – for example two Kaufland warehouses without a location of their own in Business Central – only the oldest one (by Created At) gets the stock in the inventory synchronization. The others get quantity 0, have Sync Status Error, and name the offer that sells the stock in Sync Error and in the Stock Sold by Offer field of their card. Remedy: give one offer a location of its own, or delete the one you do not need.
If one storefront cannot be read, the others continue; the error is recorded in the merchantCENTRAL activity log. The message at the end lists the offers read, those skipped for a storefront Business Central does not know, and always the storefronts whose offers Kaufland did not return. If not a single storefront can be read, the import stops with Kaufland's message.
The import runs through merchantCENTRAL; Kaufland must be enabled and licensed there. The scheduled task REFRESH-OFFERS reads the offers the same way; Create Default Tasks creates it switched on with an interval of 60 minutes.
