If your company subscribes to GS1Trade Sync, product data will by default always be shared with GS1Trade Sync. When you publish products from GS1Trade Packaging, items that already exist in GS1Trade Sync will automatically be shared with the relevant data recipients.

However, if a product does not yet exist in GS1Trade Sync, it will be created as a draft in the system. You will then need to manually assign data recipients and publish the products in GS1Trade Sync.

This guide will walk you through how to do that.
