      How do I ban postage machines for my items?

      Here are a few ways you can ban postage machines for items that don't fit in the machine

      In the Varle.lt system, there are global rules that prohibit postage meters for goods that exceed the maximum weight of the postage meters. Sometimes the weight may not be the most suitable criterion, so post machines need to be additionally prohibited with the help of rules on our side.

      • If you are using xml to import products, the weight must be provided in the '<weight>' tag for the bans to be triggered automatically.
      • If you use sheets, the weight must be entered in the 'Weight (kg)' column for the bans to be activated automatically.

      Additional prohibitions in the rules if you use XML to import products

      In order for us to additionally ban postal machines with the help of rules on our side, you need to generate an additional attribute for products that do not fit in the postal machine. It could look like this:

      <attribute title="Terminal">
      <![CDATA[ No ]]>
      </attribute>
      Once this information is added to the XML, please let us know and we will programmatically ban postmasters. If there are new products to which you add this attribute, the rules will be activated automatically and you don't need to do anything extra.
      ➡️Please inform by e-mail marketplace@varle.lt
      ⚠️More about XML structure can be found here: XML documentation

      Additional prohibitions in the rules if you use Google sheets to import products

      In order for us to additionally ban postal machines with the help of rules on our side, you need to generate an additional attribute for products that do not fit in the postal machine. You can do this in the column: Attributes

      The submission format can be: Terminal: No

      After adding this information to the Google sheets file, please let us know and we will ban the post machines programmatically. If there are new products to which you add this attribute, the rules will be activated automatically and you don't need to do anything extra.

      You can also ban terminals in the product administrative environment. We do not recommend this method, as it will not work dynamically and you will have to adjust each product separately. The method is useful when the seller has few items and does everything manually.

      1. Log in to 'Seller Zone' -> 'Product Management System'
        1. ➡️ You can find how to do that here: Seller's area
      2. Open the admin environment of a specific product by clicking on the product ID in the first column
      3. Go to the 'Special attributes' section. Expand the tab to find:
        1. all_terminals - includes all post machines. Selecting 'No' will ban all post machines.
        2. dpd_terminal - DPD post machines.
        3. venipak_terminal - VENIPAK post machines.
        4. lpe_terminal - LPexpress post machines.
        5. omniva_terminal - Omniva post machines.
        6. itella_terminal - ITELLA post machines.
      4. Select 'No' .
      5. Save the product.
