Microsoft Curate - Edit seller defaults

  • Article

You can set the eligibility and inventory trust for sellers in the Partner Center screen or in the My Settings for {Seller Name} section of the Partner Details page.

Note

Inventory trust settings only apply to standard line item targeting.

Sellers can see the settings you have set for them. Your default settings will apply if you do not set custom settings for the seller. For more information on default settings, see Set Seller Defaults.

While you can change your settings for the seller, you cannot change the seller's settings for you. You can change your settings for the seller in the Partner Center screen and in the My Settings for {Seller Name} section of the Partner Details page. You can view the seller's current settings for you in the {Seller Name} Settings for Me section of the Partner Details page.

  • To edit a single seller's settings, click Edit in the My Settings for {Seller Name} section to display seller settings.
  • To edit multiple sellers, select the checkbox of the sellers you want to edit and click Edit Selected Sellers to display the Edit Partner Controls section. Any changes you make will be applied to all checked sellers.

Step 2. Update settings

Apply your default settings

To apply seller defaults (see Set Seller Defaults):

  • For a single seller in the My Settings for {Seller Name} section, select Default from the dropdown.

  • For multiple sellers in the Edit Partner Controls section, select Default.

    When Default is selected, the current default settings display for reference.

    Note

    If you select Default, the Inventory Trust Settings will follow the default settings.

Set custom settings

    • For a single seller in the My Settings for {Seller Name} section, select Custom from the dropdown.
    • For multiple sellers, the settings are available in the Edit Partner Controls section.
  2. Select the custom settings:
    • Seller Eligibility - the transaction eligibility between buyer and seller. A buyer may block a seller, a seller may block a buyer, or both buyer and seller may be blocked by each other, see Partner Center Screen.
    • Inventory Trust Level - indicates whether you trust inventory reviewed only by the Microsoft Advertising platform (Platform-reviewed), by the Microsoft Advertising platform and the seller (Seller-reviewed), or all inventory (All). For more information on the different inventory trust levels, see the Setting default inventory trust section in Partner Center Screen.
