2. Open the downloaded report Excel file to determine the error code. Read the error message.

Below is the sample 20002 error message.

To successfully add ASIN to existing parentage, you must use a variation theme that uses or incorporates this "existing theme." For example: if the product varies by Size and Color ("SizeColor" variation), then you must specify a theme that includes both Size and Color.

Or, check the parentage Variation Theme in the Variation Wizard.
