The new and poorly designed Sales Manager has added many steps to what used to be a very slick and quick listing service. I list in about 10 different categories everytime I list, the way the pictues are arranged is determined by Auction Watch, so it used to be so handy to just start at the top of the list, bring up the picture and go on from there. All of the peramaters were on the one page (very handy). Now I have to go back and forth to change categories. Yesterday this added about 30 minutes to my listing time. Please go back to the old "Create Listing". Your new system stinks, to put it mildly. Homer

Hello reedflyer,
Thank you for posting.
If you frequently list items in the same categories, you may want to consider using inventory profiles. When you create an inventory profile, you can define your category and related auction details (such as duration and item location). Then, from the "Choose Category" page, you can simply select this profile from the drop-down list and hit "continue" to go directly to the listing page, without having to traverse the category tree. You could name your profiles according to the categories you most commonly list to, so that you can easily locate them from the drop-down menu.
The actual process of choosing a category has not changed between our previous page flow and the current page flow. The steps required to traverse the tree is the same as before, but an inventory profile saves you from having to take these steps every time.

Hi - I wanted to mention also, if you are not using categories that require item specifics, you could use Sales Manager Pro, which is free for download here:
