The CountryOfOrigin field is now a required field when sending product feeds via Amazon MWS Api. Actually a small thing, but sometimes it is a real struggle to figure out where to insert the value. Important to know…the country code is entered with 2 characters as value, so here in the example with UK.

“”< xsd:element name=”CountryOfOrigin” type=”CountryOfOriginType” minOccurs=”0″/>””

For the “CountryOfOriginType” attribute, the rules allow valid values as follows: “value=”[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z]|unknown””

Here is the link to the contact form

If you can no longer log in as a seller, on Amazon as a seller has a real problem. This has also happened to me, for me it was a new credit card – it was not possible to click on the seller service and the entry of the new credit card number was not successful. “You look stupid out of the laundry!” – I just found a fresh link in Sellercentral more by chance and hope to help colleagues with it. It’s not a phone number, but it’s a form that you can contact.

I now want to publish my app as a Mac OS app as well. This is now possible. During the check, however, the app was rejected because no help was stored and no help text was displayed when clicking on the Help menu. With the following addition I simply removed the superfluous menu items.

//Insert in AppDelegate.swift
override func buildMenu(with builder: UIMenuBuilder) {
        super.buildMenu(with: builder)
        /* Do something */
        builder.remove(menu: .view)
        builder.remove(menu: .format)
        builder.remove(menu: .edit)
        builder.remove(menu: .file)
        builder.remove(menu: .window)
        builder.remove(menu: .help)
}

There will be the eXODA WebsiteWatch. An easy to use iPhone app that allows you to monitor a url for changes.
The app will be available in April 2020.

What makes the app special?
The website requests are handled externally by a server. So the app is not dependent on the goodwill of your IOS. What does that mean? The Apple IOS organizes the allocation of background computing capacity on your iPhone or iPad. Therefore it makes sense in this case to have an external server do the calculation and check for website changes. If you add a URL to your watchlist, it will be visited in regular intervals. The notification is a push message.

Status 26.03.2020 08:00 h
There are currently about 4tsd new infected persons per day – this has remained fairly constant over the last few days. The number of healthy people has risen to 3500, which is a considerable leap.

This graph is created by myself and shows the increase of infected persons from one day to the next. The red line represents the 7-day average.
