If you have listed an item in a category that supports parts compatibility by application, you can add or remove item compatibilities.

Note: Compatibilities for items that were listed by product may not be added or removed. Refer to Specify parts compatibility by product for additional information.

Add item compatibilities

To add additional compatibilities, simply call ReviseItem (or comparable revise call that supports parts compatibility) and specify any new compatibilities with Item.ItemCompatibilityList.

Duplicate compatibilities (Item.ItemCompatibilityList.Compatibility) are ignored.
