Why product disapprovals hurt performance
Disapprovals remove products from eligibility, fragment catalog coverage, and create hidden performance loss when no one is watching the approval rate closely.
Product issue monitoring
FeedIQO keeps issue lists attached to the actual products and destinations they affect so the work stays operational instead of drifting into static exports.
Approved, pending, and disapproved product status
Status tracking matters because the problem is not only the number of disapproved products, but also how quickly the catalog is recovering or regressing over time.
Issue severity
Severity helps teams decide what to fix now, what to group into a larger remediation project, and what to watch without overreacting.

Destination impact
A product issue can affect multiple destinations differently, so FeedIQO helps teams judge visibility impact rather than treating every product error as equal.
Fix workflow
Attach notes, ownership, and proof to the issue so remediation has context instead of starting from the same manual investigation every time.

FAQ

Yes, where the underlying Merchant Center data supports it. The goal is to make product issue impact easier to judge, not to reduce everything to one count.
