At a glance
Listings Drifting from BC Source-of-Truth counts SKUs where the Walmart title, price, or image no longer matches your BigCommerce catalogue. BigCommerce is the source-of-truth, so drift means buyers see stale or inconsistent information on Walmart. Beyond confusing shoppers, price drift exposes you to Walmart parity enforcement, which is why this is a hero card.
Calculation
The value is derived by comparing each Walmart Marketplace listing’s title, price, and image against the matching BigCommerce source-of-truth record and counting the SKUs where any of those fields differ within the window. The comparison is cross-platform, so it depends on both connectors being linked. See the At a glance summary for the window and unit, and the worked example below for how the count reads in practice.Worked example
A representative reading of Listings Drifting from BC Source-of-Truth for a typical merchant on Walmart Marketplace. On 12 Mar 26 a seller sees 17 SKUs flagged as drifting, over the alert line. Inspection shows a recent BigCommerce price update that never propagated to Walmart, leaving 17 items priced higher on the marketplace than on the source store. The action is to resync the affected SKUs so Walmart matches BigCommerce, removing both the buyer confusion and the parity-enforcement exposure.
