Here’s a draft help center article you can paste into Intercom (or adapt). It follows the tone and structure of Listing attributes that require special consideration.
Walmart count, pack size, and net content attributes
Learn how Walmart OMNI spec v5 uses Net Content, Total Count, Count Per Pack, and Multipack Quantity — and how to set them correctly in Zentail.
Walmart requires several related attributes on most product types. They sound similar, but each answers a different question. Getting them wrong causes listing errors, incorrect pack-size display, or items that never go live on Walmart.com.
Walmart attributes at a glance
Walmart attribute | What it means |
Net Content | Quantity and unit printed on the product label (e.g. 13.4 Ounce, 50 Count, 128 Fluid Ounces). Required for visibility on Walmart.com for many product types.
Please Note: If your item includes multiple items with the same UOM, add them together to get the total measurement. If the item is a set with multiple items that do not share the same UOM, list as 1 Each.' |
Total Count ( | Total number of identical items in the sellable package. (ex. 100 pills or 2 bars) |
Count Per Pack ( | Number of identical items inside each inner pack when the listing is a multipack. (ex. 50 pills or 2 bars) |
Multipack Quantity ( | How many separately packaged, individually sellable units are in the listing. Use 1 when the product is a single wrapper (bars not sold separately, one box of 6 cans not marked for individual sale, etc.). |
Relationship:
Total Count = Multipack Quantity × Count Per Pack
How these map in Zentail
In Zentail’s catalog, use these fields:
Zentail field | Walmart listing attribute | Display name on Walmart |
Unit Count | Net Content | Net Content |
Count Per Pack | Count Per Pack | Count Per Pack |
Multipack Quantity | Multipack Quantity | Multipack Quantity |
Total Count is calculated automatically by multiplying
Count Per Pack x Multipack Quantity
Net Content vs count fields
Question | Use this |
What does the label say (weight, volume, or count)? | Unit Count → Walmart Net Content |
How many identical items are in the whole listing? | Multipack Quantity, Count Per Pack, and resulting Total Count |
Is this a multipack of separately sellable units? | Multipack Quantity > 1 |
Are several items in one wrapper (not sold separately)? | Multipack Quantity = 1; put the number of items in Count Per Pack / Total Count |
Net Content should match packaging text, not be calculated from Count Per Pack × Multipack Quantity unless that matches the label.
Examples:
Gallon of milk: Unit Count
128, UOMFluid Ounces(or equivalent valid Walmart unit).2-pack of 50-count pill bottles (each bottle individually sellable): Multipack Quantity
2, Count Per Pack50, Total Count100. Net Content is usually per-bottle label (50+Count) unless the outer label states the total (100+Count).2 candy bars in one wrapper, 13.4 oz total: Multipack Quantity
1, Count Per Pack2, Total Count2. Unit Count13.4, UOMOunce(not2in Unit Count for weight).
Examples
Single unit
Product | Multipack Qty | Count Per Pack | Total Count | Net Content |
One bottle, 50 pills | 1 | 50 | 50 | 50 Count |
One candy bars, 13.4 oz | 1 | 1 | 1 | 13.4 Ounce |
Multipack — individually sellable inner packs
Product | Multipack Qty | Count Per Pack | Total Count | Net content |
2 bottles × 50 pills | 2 | 50 | 100 | 100 Count |
6-pack soda, rings, sold per can | 6 | 1 | 6 | 72 Fluid Ounces |
2-pack adapters, each barcoded | 2 | 1 | 2 | 2 Count |
Multipack — not individually sellable
Product | Multipack Qty | Count Per Pack | Total Count | Net Content |
2 candy bars, one wrapper, 13.4 oz | 1 | 2 | 2 | 13.4 Ounce |
6-pack soda in one box, not sold per can | 1 | 6 | 6 | 72 Fluid Ounces |
Gift basket, 5 different items | 1 | 1 | 1 | 1 Each |
Managing attributes in Zentail
QuickEdit
Add these columns to your QuickEdit view:
Unit Count
Count Per Pack
Multipack Quantity
or use this link.
Filter listing errors for the Walmart channel to see which SKUs are missing or invalid.
Imports
You can import pack and count fields using the catalog column names:
unit_countunit_count_uomcount_per_packmultipack_quantity
Use Valid Values sheets for Walmart when available; they list allowed UOMs and channel-specific overrides.
Variants (pivot attributes)
Count, Unit Count, and Multipack Quantity can be used as pivot attributes (with size and similar fields) so variants differ by pack size or count.
Unit Count UOM defaults
For Walmart, Count is a common default UOM for Net Content when the product is count-based. Weight and volume products should use Ounce, Fluid Ounces, Pound, Gram, etc., as allowed for the product type.
Common mistakes
Mistake | Fix |
Setting Multipack Quantity to 2 for a single bag with 2 unwrapped bars | Use 1; put 2 in Count Per Pack and Total Count |
Putting 13.4 in Unit Count for a weight product without Ounce UOM | Use 13.4 + Ounce; don’t use Count for weight |
Using catalog Count for Walmart Total Count | Use Multipack Quantity / Count Per Pack |
Net Content = Count Per Pack × Multipack when label shows total | Use the label value (e.g. 100 Count on outer pack) |
Net Content = 50 when outer label says 100 | Match the label for the SKU you’re listing |
Total Count = 2 but Unit Count = 13.4 Ounce for same SKU | Correct — weight and piece count are different dimensions |
Troubleshooting
Listing error on Net Content or Total Count
Open the SKU in QuickEdit with Walmart errors highlighted.
Confirm Unit Count and Unit Count UOM match the product label.
Confirm Multipack Quantity, Count Per Pack, and implied total (qty × per pack) match how the item is actually packaged.
Item not visible on Walmart.com
Net Content is required for many product types. Ensure Unit Count is filled with valid Walmart units for that product type.
Product type–specific rules
Requirements vary by Walmart product type. Use Listing Prep to see required attributes for that PT, or download the Valid Values sheet for the product type.
