== Migration help for Xstreet SL merchants ==
 
This section is for Merchants who currently have products on the old Xstreet SL, and provides help for managing product updates during the transition to the new Second Life Marketplace.
 
Linden Lab is on course for retiring Xstreet SL and launching the Marketplace. '''During this transition, one of the best sources of information and how-tos are the [http://blogs.secondlife.com/community/commerce Commerce Team's blog posts].''' The following sections refer to a few specific posts on migration that contain current and critical information for merchants.
 
=== Transition timeline ===
 
As the transition progresses, you'll notice features gradually being disabled in Xstreet SL, while new features (and bug fixes) are being added to the Marketplace. According to Linden Lab blog posts, Xstreet SL purchasing should be disabled by October 6th, 2010, and all Xstreet SL functionality will be fully retired in December 2010.
 
A detailed listing of the transition plans and known dates can be found in Grant Linden's blog post "[http://blogs.secondlife.com/community/commerce/blog/2010/08/31/second-life-marketplace-is-coming-soon--transition-plans Second Life Marketplace is coming soon - Transition Plans]".
 
=== Listing migration ===
 
The final migration for listing content is scheduled to occur on September 20th, 2010. All merchants need to check their migration settings and product information so that their products are properly migrated to the Marketplace.
 
Of particular importance to merchants is the migration of permission settings. Grant Linden has provided a comprehensive listing of what will and will not successfully migrate. For this and other recommendations for successful migration, see Grant Linden's "[http://blogs.secondlife.com/community/commerce/blog/2010/09/10/update-on-the-next-sl-beta-marketplace-listing-migration--last-migration-for-listing-details Update on the next SL Beta Marketplace listing migration - last migration for listing details]".
 
=== Successfully updating a product during the transition ===
 
 
'''The Marketplace team is performing a final migration of reviews and historical sales data from XStreet to the Marketplace.'''
 
If you:
* Manually created any products on the Marketplace that correspond to XStreet SL products, OR renamed Marketplace inventory items in order to release new versions, AND
* You want the reviews and sales history for these products to be migrated to the Marketplace,
'''Please verify that your Marketplace product has the correct Xstreet ID specified by the end of the year'''. The final migration of data from XStreet SL will happen at the '''beginning of January''', and after the migration is complete, we will remove the Xstreet Product ID field from the product edit page. '''The XStreet ID field can be found on [[Marketplace/Edit_Item_Listing|each product’s Edit Item Listing page]].'''
