Add the pick up later attribute using attribute rules and conditions

For better accuracy and management of data, we highly recommend adding the required attributes directly to your data source; the attribute rules can be used to supplement your existing product data. Conditions can be added in front of an operation to filter items in your feed that meet certain criteria of your choosing. You can use conditions to apply the pick up later attribute to a subset of your products.

The following steps will apply the collection SLA [pickup_SLA] to a subset of your items in your data source. You should only include the pick up later attribute for products that are available to collect later. If there are differences between your shops, we recommend adding this information to your inventory data.

Instructions

Steps to set a specific condition based on the collection SLA [pickup_SLA] attribute

Go to the Settings and tools icon in Merchant Center, then select Data sources.

Under the 'Name' column, select the feed that you'd like to create rules for, then click the 'Your attribute rules' tab.

If you haven't created attribute rules for the attribute that you want to edit, click Add attribute rule.

Under the 'Processed attributes' drop-down menu, select Collection SLA.

Click on the pencil icon next to the 'Conditions' field, then click Type or select. Click Primary feed: [ Your feed name ], then select an applicable condition among the options from the drop-down menu.

• Examples:
  • Use Brand when six-day is only available when the product's brand is 'Google'.
  • Use GTIN when next-day is only available when the GTIN starts with 'G'.

Click Set to. In the Type or select drop-down menu, select Add value, then select the value intended for the condition set in five among the supported values:

• Next_day, 2-day, 3-day, 4-day, 5-day, 6-day or multi-week
• Don't use Same day as it's not supported with the pick up later feature.
• Choosing the 'multi-week' option will display the collection notification.

Click OK.
