What are Vendor Codes in DataDoe?
Vendor codes are assigned by Amazon but are not exposed on SP API. DataDoe does not fetch vendor codes from Amazon. You upload them as a CSV file. Uploaded vendor codes are added to vendor views that contain SKU or ASIN, such as Vendor Sales, Traffic & Inventory.
Where do I upload Vendor Codes?
- Open Sellers & Vendors (opens in a new tab).
- Select a vendor. Vendor Codes upload is available for vendors only.
- Go to Upload Vendor Codes and choose your file.
What is the file format?
You can download a sample CSV (opens in a new tab).
| Column | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
child_asin | See note | Product ASIN (10 characters). |
sku | See note | SKU this vendor code applies to. |
vendor_code | Yes | The vendor code assigned by Amazon. |
Each row must contain exactly one of child_asin or sku — never both, and never neither. Rows that don't follow this rule are rejected.
Re-uploading Vendor Codes
When you upload a Vendor Codes CSV, DataDoe matches each row on the seller or vendor account, plus whichever of ASIN or SKU is present in that row.
- Matching row → the vendor code is overwritten with what is in the file.
- No match → a new row is added.
Which tables use uploaded Vendor Codes?
Look for tables that contain the vendor_code column in the Data Scheme.
