How to fix: Closed Business Profile

A custom icon for Merchant Center Classic article header.

One or more shop codes in your local inventory feed references a Business Profile that has been marked as closed. Within your Business Profile Manager, go to the business group linked to your Merchant Center account and identify the shop codes indicated as 'Closed businesses' in the 'Processing' tab of your local inventory feed.

Fix your problem

Step 1 of 3: View the affected shop codes

  1. In your Merchant Center account, select Products on the navigation menu, then click Feeds.
  2. Click the name of your local product inventory feed.
  3. In the 'Processing' tab, click Download file.
  4. Open the file and filter by error 'Closed Business Profile'.

Step 2 of 3: Investigate the closed shops

  1. In your Business Profile Manager, go to 'Businesses'.
  2. Filter for closed businesses at the top by switching the view from 'All' to 'Permanently closed' or 'Temporarily closed'.
  3. Verify if the inventory data for these locations was submitted correctly and that you intend to send inventory data for these shops.
  4. If those shops are open, you can reopen them by following the instructions here.

Step 3 of 3: Resubmit your product data

  1. After claiming your business, resubmit your inventory feed using one of these methods:
  2. Next, check if you've fixed the issue by making sure that it's no longer listed on the processing report.
Note: It can take up to 24 hours to sync your business locations into your Merchant Center account, so we recommend that you upload your inventory feed 24 hours after linking accounts, or after a shop code is updated in your Business Profile.
