If your product in WooCommerce doesn’t have an EAN code and you attempt to publish it, you’ll encounter the following error:
The EAN is required and cannot be empty.
An EAN code is mandatory for every product you want to publish on bol.com, as it is a requirement set by bol.com.
How to Resolve
Assign a valid EAN code to your product in WooCommerce.
If the error persists, ensure that the EAN Source in the plugin settings is correctly mapped to the appropriate field in your product data.
Once these steps are completed, try publishing the product again.
