Problem

When creating a variation listing on BigCommerce via Linnworks, the variation item weights look different than expected.


Cause

Weights for variation child SKUs can be taken from two places in Linnworks:


  1. Priority is given to the weight that is added as an extended property and linked to the Weight attribute in the BigCommerce configurator.

  2. If the weight attribute is not being used, the weight is taken from My Inventory > Product Details > Postage Definition.


Variation Parent SKUs will always display the maximum weight from all of the child SKUs, that are submitted to BigCommerce depending on the above priority.
