Frequently Asked Questions

What are the differences between Walmart Marketplace and Walmart Owned/DSV?

Walmart Marketplace is a retail marketplace, allowing sellers to leverage Walmart’s e-commerce platform to sell products directly to consumers and manage their own fulfillment or pricing as they see fit. Owned and DSV suppliers, on the other hand, operate via first-party selling relationships in which suppliers sell products to Walmart, operating in a similar fashion to traditional retail channels. Since the inventory sold through Owned and DSV contracts is owned by Walmart, suppliers do not manage fulfillment or pricing.

Why is seller-fulfilled inventory data distinct from WFS inventory data?

Walmart’s seller-fulfilled inventory data and WFS inventory data are sourced from different Walmart Marketplace APIs and therefore require distinct connections.

Why are there discrepancies between the data in the retail and finance modules?

Data on the retail module is sourced from order data, which is inclusive of all created orders. However, finance module data is pulled from reconciliation reports, which only include dispatched orders. Additionally, there is a difference between the availability of the two data sources—retail data is available daily and finance data is only available after the close of each payment period.
