At a glance
Alibaba Moderation Rejected Listings (24h) is a real-time alert metric tracked from Alibaba data. It surfaces product listings that Alibaba moderation has rejected in the last 24 hours, typically for IP infringement, restricted or prohibited goods, or image quality issues. For a B2B supplier a rejected listing is offline and unsearchable, and repeated rejections can weigh on your supplier standing. The card sits in the Nerve Centre category and pairs with the listing health and badge sibling cards listed below to build a complete diagnostic picture.
Calculation
Vortex IQ reads your listing records from the Alibaba integration and identifies products whose moderation status changed to rejected within the last 24 hours. Each rejected listing is added to the alert list along with the reason Alibaba returned, such as IP infringement, restricted goods, or image quality. The card reports the rolling 24-hour rejection count. See the worked example below for a typical reading.Worked example
A representative reading of Alibaba Moderation Rejected Listings (24h) for a typical Alibaba supplier. Suppose a supplier uploaded a batch of new SKUs on 12 Mar 26 and the card now reads 2: one listing was rejected for an image-quality issue and one for a restricted-keyword flag. The interpretation is straightforward: the image-quality rejection is a quick fix with a compliant photo and resubmission, while the restricted-keyword listing needs the wording reviewed against Alibaba’s prohibited-goods policy before it can go back live. Acting within the 24-hour window keeps both products earning.
