How Do I List Items on eBay in Bulk?
In order to push eBay listings, the items must be set up with the proper attributes. These attributes can be set by going to each item: Products > Product Catalog Manager > Product Editor > Advanced Tab > Edit Custom Product Attribute
All required attributes must be updated properly. Below is a list a of attributes that are available. All attribute classes need to be created (if missing) under Products > Custom Product Attributes.

Once the attributes are updated for selected items:
1. Go to Products > eBay - Create Bulk eBay Listings
2. Select the products that need to be listed on eBay
3. Pick the Listing Duration, Shipping Template, Refunds Option, and Payment Method
4. Click Go to Next Step
5. Review all information and click Submit Listings
Note: this feature is not available to all merchants using the eBay module. Only if the merchant is using eBay via attributes (and not the eBay data feeds tab) will they have access to this feature. Note that all merchants will have some eBay via attribute functionality, but not necessarily the ability to use attributes only to push listings in bulk. See this article for more info.
