I made an inventory item offline in sales manager pro, but it would not sync with the online program. did I do something wrong?
Can you only create an inventory item online?
After you create an inventory online, can you then launch it on ebay and the storefront?? [ as long as you have more than 1 item?]

The inventory is setup to be used from one location or the other, not both. The online inventory tracks items from start to finish, adding to the quantity available if the items do not sell. The SMP software however is not connected to the closed/post sale section, so if you do not relist the item until it sells, you would need to manually update your quantity available in the offline inventory.

You can only directly create an online inventory item online.
As a work around to be able to use SMP to make online inventory, you can:
1. Create an Auction, FP, or Ebay Store item in Sales Manager Pro.
2. Schedule the listing to start in the future.
3. Go to PENDING in your on-line tools.
4. Cancel the future launch.
5. Edit the auction details as needed, and save it into inventory (Online).
6. Enter your quantity in stock and launch from online inventory.

That observation sounds correct, or: (as long as you have at least 1 item)
