Hello --
Are you referring to "Inventory Profiles" in Sales Manager Merchandising Edition (the original Sales Manager version)?
When you convert over to Sales Manager Inventory Edition and do an import of your existing inventory from your account, all your inventory items are brought over to SMIE. Note that SMIE does not make any distinction between regular inventory items and inventory profiles.
In Sales Manager Merchandising Edition, an inventory profile served to pre-fill the listing form with data from an inventory item. In Sales Manager Inventory Edition, however, every inventory item can effectively serve as a profile:
-- In your Inventory view, you can select any inventory item and make multiple copies of it. Then, using the bulk editor, you can modify these copies as needed to reflect different items.
-- Once you have the appropriate inventory items defined, you can attach auto-launch profiles to them, or manually launch them, which creates individual listings from those items.
Please let us know if there is any additional information we can provide -- thanks --
