What is the use of the templates in the app?

In the app, templates are pre-defined sets of data that store your commonly used configurations. They help you quickly apply consistent settings across multiple products and reduce manual work.

Here’s how each type is used in-app:

Shipping Template – Lets you assign pre-configured shipping rules (like delivery times, shipping costs, weight ranges) to products so you don’t have to set them manually every time.

Policy Template – Applies your saved shop policies (refunds, returns, payments) to new product listings to ensure consistency across your Etsy store.

Price Template – Automatically adjusts product prices for Etsy listings (fixed amount or percentage changes) without editing each product individually.

Inventory Template – Helps control stock levels by applying buffer stock settings or minimum quantity rules to prevent overselling.

Shop Section – Assigns your Etsy listings to a specific section in your Etsy shop (like “Home Decor” or “Digital Prints”) during product upload. This helps organize your store layout on Etsy directly from the app.

Production Partner – Lets you select or assign an existing production partner (if your products are manufactured by someone else) while uploading products. This ensures your listings comply with Etsy’s handmade policies.

Result: These templates reduce manual effort and ensure consistent settings are applied across all products linked or uploaded via the app.
