Common errors with sonobi.com lines
-
Seller ID not found
114,217 lines
Ask Sonobi for the account ID it lists for you in its sellers.json, correct the line, or remove it if you no longer work with them. Buyers that check sellers.json drop these paths.
-
Seller type BOTH
26,442 lines
The account is listed as BOTH, so sellers.json alone cannot tell a buyer which relationship applies. Nothing to fix on your side; buyers usually look at the seller's domain.
-
DIRECT but intermediary
2,623 lines
If a partner holds this account and resells your inventory, the line should say RESELLER. If the account is yours, ask Sonobi to list it as PUBLISHER.
-
RESELLER but publisher
395 lines
If the account is yours, declare it DIRECT. If a partner holds it, ask Sonobi why the account is listed as PUBLISHER.
