How to solve Offer not found issue while uploading the local inventory feed

Check product availability in the primary feed

• Every item in the local inventory feed must first exist in your primary product feed (the one that lists your standard online products).
• Look at the id attribute in your local feed. Does that exact id exist in your primary feed?
• If not, Google will throw “Offer not found”.

Match id across feeds

• The id in the local inventory feed must exactly match the id in your primary feed.
• Example:
  • Primary feed product: id = SKU123
  • Local feed product: id = SKU123 (must be identical, including case).

Check the store code setup

• The local inventory feed requires a store code that matches a physical store you’ve registered in Business Profiles or in the Merchant Center linked locations.
• If the store code doesn’t exist or isn’t linked, it will also block updates.

Feed processing order

• Make sure your primary feed is successfully processed before uploading the local inventory feed.
• Uploading the local feed before the primary one is active will result in “Offer not found”.

Verify feed formats

• Common mistakes:
  • Missing required attributes (id, store code, quantity, price).
  • Typos or extra spaces in id.
• Ensure the file is in the correct format (TSV, XML, or Google Sheets) and follows Google’s local inventory feed spec.

Check for disapproved products

• If a product is disapproved or not active in your primary feed, its local version will also fail with “Offer not found”.
• Fix disapprovals first.

Most Important: Make sure the primary feed label and the local inventory feed labels are same while uploading the feed.
