Customers will also be notified when the item ships or if it has been cancelled.  Streamlined Bulk Item Spec Workflow for Item Spec 4.0 We are continuously thinking of new ways to make the item setup and maintenance process quicker and more efficient for sellers with Item Spec 4.0. Currently, we're developing a more streamlined Bulk Item Spec workflow that will pre-populate all available item attributes automatically. Sellers will also be able to add the GTINs for up to 5,000 SKUs for Item Maintenance and the Walmart Fulfillment Services (WFS) Bulk Item Convert.
