How to Create a Template?
Step 1: Assign a Category
- Go to the Templates tab in the left navigation menu.
- Select "New Template" to start creating a new template.
- In the Category Mapping and Product Assignment section:
--> Browse the list of categories displayed (e.g., CDs & Vinyl, Office Products, Home & Kitchen, etc.)
--> Continue selecting the categories that best match your product.
--> Once selected, the chosen category will appear under Selected Category.
Step 2: Add Products to the Template
- Use the Add Products section to define the rules for product inclusion.
--> Select a Product Attribute (e.g., product type, tag, etc.).
--> Define a Condition (e.g., equals, contains).
--> Enter the Attribute Value to specify which products meet the condition. - Click Add a New Group to add additional product rules, if required.
- Once all rules are set, click View Results to preview the list of products that match the criteria.
Condition: This is the situational parameter you set against the selected product attribute to choose the products for the given rule group. Based on the product attribute, the condition can be of four types - Equals, Not Equals, Contains, and Not Contains. You can choose the best condition to assign your products to the template.
Attribute Value: Add the desired attribute value that best describes the product you want to assign to the template.
Note: If your product is not found as per the rules you set, you’ll get the below pop-up message. Step 3: Map Product Details and Variations
This step ensures that your product information is accurate, meets Temu's standards, and improves your product's visibility. Let’s break down the workings of this section to help you map products easily and get your listings ready for Temu.
Essential Product Details: Provide accurate product information to meet Temu's standards. This step ensures visibility and compliance.
Mapping Variation Types: Map Shopify product variations (e.g., size, color) with Temu options for consistent listings. Select multiple variations where necessary.
Optional Attributes: Add additional product attributes to enhance discoverability and improve listing accuracy.
Let’s take a detailed look at each of these sections:
Product Essential Details Section
The Essential Product Details section is crucial for ensuring that your products meet Temu's standards and are accurately displayed to shoppers. This section requires you to input mandatory attributes to enhance product visibility and compliance with platform policies. Here's a breakdown of the fields:
Temu Attribute Name:
This refers to the product properties such as material, composition, style, pattern, etc.
Required Attributes Value:
Map your Shopify metafield values with Temu’s available attribute options.
If a required attribute doesn’t have a Shopify metafield, it will not appear as an option for mapping.
Map Values Button:
Choose the correct Shopify metafield for the attribute.
Click the ‘Map Values’ button to link your Shopify values with Temu’s attributes.
Upon clicking on the ‘Map Values’ button, the following pop-up will appear:
Here, you map the Shopify metafield value with Temu attributes. For example, If you have a metafield called 123 in Shopify that lists materials (e.g., cotton, polyester), map this metafield to Temu’s material attributes.
Trademark Selection
Brand Name: Choose the trademark or brand under which the product is sold. This is a field to ensure the brand is correctly displayed to shoppers.
Package Dimensions
Length, Width, and Height (in Inches): Provide precise dimensions of the product's package to help Temu calculate shipping logistics and costs.
Package Weight
Weight (in Pounds): Enter the package's weight in pounds to ensure accurate shipping calculations and compliance with logistics requirements.
Shipping Information
Shipping Days: Specify the time it takes to ship the product to provide accurate delivery timelines to customers.
Shipping Template ID: Select or assign a shipping template ID that applies to the product. This helps standardize shipping rates and policies.
Import Designation
Import Field: Indicate the import status or any specific designations for the product.
California Proposition 65 Warning
Warning Type: Select the appropriate warning type for products being sold in California. Options may include:
No Warning Applicable (for safe products).
Chemical Warning (if the product contains chemicals requiring notification).
Benefits of Essential Product Information
Accurate Listings: Ensure your product complies with Temu's policies, reducing the risk of listing errors.
Enhanced Visibility: Providing complete and accurate details improves your product's discoverability and shopper trust.
Shipping Optimization: Correct package size and weight help streamline logistics and provide clear delivery expectations.
Step 04: Mapping Variation Types
The Mapping Variation Types section enables you to map product variations accurately by aligning Shopify attribute values and options with corresponding Temu attribute values and options, ensuring consistent and precise listings.
Option Name for Shopify: This field allows you to select the variation attribute of products on Shopify. For example size, color, etc.
Option Name for Temu: This field allows you to select the Temu variation attribute of products and map them with the Shopify counterparts.
For example - if you select ‘color’ as the attribute option under the Shopify field, you can map it with color, size, or other available fields on Temu. This will allow you to map variations as per the following combinations:
Color to color
Color to size
Size to size
Size to color
.. etc.
For products without variations (simple products), you can assign a default Temu attribute using the dropdown menu.
Steps for Mapping Variations:
Select an Option for Shopify:
Use the dropdown under "Option Name for Shopify" to choose a variation type (e.g., Color).
Select an Option for TemU:
Use the dropdown under "Option Name for Temu" to choose a variation type (e.g., Color).
Map Shopify Variations with Temu:
Align Temu variation values (e.g., "Red, Blue, Green") with corresponding Shopify options for accurate display. Use the dropdown to accurately choose the targeted variation type on Temu.
Repeat for Other Variations:
Map additional variations such as color, material, or style as needed.
Save the Configuration:
Once all variations are mapped, save the changes to ensure proper product synchronization.
If you can’t find any Temu attribute listed in the dropdown, you can create a custom Temu attribute. Special Case: Creating Custom Temu Attribute Values
- To create custom Temu attribute values for simple products, click on ‘Add custom Temu attributes’.
- To create custom Temu attribute values, click on the ‘clicking here’ button.
A pop-up window will appear, where you can:
- Select all Shopify values by checking the ‘Select All’ box.
- Map specific attributes by selecting individual values.
- Manually input values in the ‘Custom Temu Attribute’ field if needed.
Once you’ve made your selections, click ‘Add’ to save the custom attribute.
This feature helps save time by automating the mapping process and reduces the need for manual entry.
Step 05: Adding Optional Attributes
Add optional product attributes to improve listing accuracy and enhance discoverability on Temu. These attributes help shoppers easily find your products.
Uploading GCC File Product Guide
When listing your products on Temu, uploading the required GCC Certification Files and a Product Guide ensures compliance and provides essential information to shoppers. Here's how it works:
GCC Certification Files
Purpose: These files certify that your products meet safety and regulatory standards, which is a requirement for listing by Temu.
Upload Requirements:
You can upload up to 6 certification files, ensuring each file size is no larger than 3 MB.
At least one certification file is mandatory to proceed with the product listing.
Accepted formats typically include PDFs or images of certifications (check Temu guidelines for specifics).
Product Guide File
Purpose: The product guide provides detailed usage instructions, product specifications, and other helpful information to assist shoppers in making informed decisions.
Upload Requirements:
You can upload one product guide file, with a maximum file size of 20 MB.
This file is highly recommended to enhance your product’s credibility and appeal to buyers.
Tips:
Include detailed and clear product information (e.g., assembly instructions, warranty details, usage tips).
Use a professional format such as PDF to maintain readability across devices.
Why Upload These Files?
Regulatory Compliance: Certification files ensure your products meet all legal and safety requirements.
Customer Trust: A comprehensive product guide demonstrates credibility from the seller’s end and helps buyers trust your products.
Improved Sales: Providing this information makes your product listings more appealing and informative, increasing the likelihood of a purchase.
