Uploading images can be a slow process. Please ensure the image is of the required size and shape and that it is not larger than required.
If you have images stored in a URL accessible location you can import the URLs and link them to your product saving time and money.

The approval process will also validate your entered enrichment information against the Hosts minimum requirements. Your sponsor may also have requirements for your enrichment which you will need to ensure you are following.
- To mark a colour as approved, tick the 'Approved' column for you desired colour.
- This will validate your entered data, informing you any missing / incorrect information as seen below.
- If your product passes validation, you will see your colour checked as approved.
