I exported my eBay orders report and imported it straight into my inventory system. Didn't notice that 200+ multi-item orders had duplicate rows — one per line item. My totals were inflated by $18,000 and I spent two days reconciling before I realized the file itself was the problem. Now I validate first and the multi-item detection tells me exactly which order numbers have multiple rows so I can account for them properly.

What's the difference between Orders Report and Transaction Report?
Orders Report focuses on shipping/logistics data. Transaction Report (from Payments tab) includes financial data like fees and payouts. For accounting, use Transaction Report.
Is the eBay Orders validator free?
You can preview eBay Orders validation results for free — no signup needed. Full validation reports use credits based on row count.
What happens to my Ebay_Seller file during validation?
Your Ebay_Seller file is validated entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to any server. The eBay Orders validation runs client-side using JavaScript.

How People Use eBay Orders
One of my clients had their eBay orders export saved as UTF-8 instead of ISO-8859-1. Every buyer name with an accent or special character came through garbled — Muller became Müller, and the address fields were even worse. The shipping labels printed with corrupted characters and three packages got returned. The validator catches encoding mismatches before any of that can happen.
We pulled an eBay orders report for Q4 and the Sale date column had mixed formats — some rows were 'Jan-15-2026 14:30:45 GMT' and others were '1/15/2026' because someone had opened it in Excel first. Our accounting software rejected the entire import with a generic date error. Took hours to find the 340 bad rows manually. The validator pinpoints every date format mismatch with the exact row number.

Common Target Import Errors
Issues you might encounter when importing Source data to Target - and how we solve them
Missing Order Number Column
The 'Order number' column is required but not found
File exported without order number
11-12345-67890
Ensure you export from Seller Hub > Orders with all columns
Go to Seller Hub > Orders > Export and select all available columns
Invalid Sale Date
The 'Sale date' column contains unparseable date values
15-Jan-26 (wrong format)
Jan-15-2026 14:30:45 GMT
eBay exports dates with time and timezone - don't modify in Excel
Re-export from eBay without opening in Excel first
Missing Item Title
Required 'Item title' column has empty values
(blank item title)
Widget Pro - Black
Each order line should have an item title from the listing
Check if this is a data issue or manual deletion
Invalid Quantity Value
The 'Quantity' column contains non-integer or negative values
0 or -1 or 2.5
2
Quantity must be a positive integer
Check for Excel formula errors or manual edits
Missing Sale Price
The 'Sale price' column is required but contains empty values
(blank price)
50.00
Every order line item needs a sale price
Re-export or check for file corruption
Invalid Total Price
The 'Total price' doesn't match expected calculation or is missing
Total missing or doesn't match items + shipping + tax
110.00 (matches sum of components)
Total should equal items + shipping + tax
Use eBay's exported totals - don't calculate manually
Multi-Item Order Format
Same order number appears multiple times (this is normal)
Order 11-12345-67890 appears in 3 rows
Each row = one item in the order
eBay Orders export has one row per line item
This is expected behavior for multi-item orders
