Hi all.

I've got 2 copies of a Duplo set that has not been inventoried.

I've tried to submit the inventory, and I apparently need to supply information
about a few parts that are not within the catalogue, but there IS information
about the parts as BrickLink is getting the data direct from LEGO

What do I need to do?

It's mostly the printed parts that I'm having issues with.

Please help as I can't sell the parts as the set isn't inventoried

regards,

Paul

You want to inventory Duplo set yes?
I've see that you submited to the catalog already 8 inventories. Submiting
of inventories isn't change so much from time when you last submited. Now
it is easer than ever.
Submit incomplete inventory it will be pending. I think you using autofill opition.
When you submit inventory of the set and it don't have all parts necessary
in the catalog but they are listed in LEGO inventory, they are marked red, delete
them from the form to go further. Then add the missing parts to the catalog,
after they approval, add them to the inventory which will be pending. After you
complete inventory and will be OK, We will approve it Then this set will
be available to part out.
I checked you credits and I see you also submited parts and photos to the catalog
so you should be familiar with the process.

regards,

Marek

I understand how the process works, but I'm always struggled with being able
to create suitable images of the 'missing' parts that need to be added
to the catalogue, which is why I was asking if the process can/had been made
simpler as the information is available already.

8 times out if 10, the images that I supply are too big, and I need to cut/crop
the image to get it small enough to be useful, which I think is too much of a
lengthy process, where the information is already available, so why can't
it be added directly from LEGO.com?

I hope you can understand why I'm asking in this regard.

Yours,

Paul

Look here, there is no problem to supply Lego photos from their database for
decorated Duplo bricks. See how many this year were added only with official
Lego photo and not original submiter's photo:

The images can be added from there, but you'll need to do it yourself. People

Right, I've submitted the inventory of the set, and the additional printed
parts have now been added to the catalogue, using the codes found on the set
box's inventory.

I hope that I've done it right(???)

It doesn't matter how "right" you do it, so don't worry about that too
much. The catalog administrators can fix things like part numbers and titles.
You do need to add images, though.

Having said that, formatting your submissions correctly will greatly speed up
the process of approval. Here's a brief tutorial using one of the parts
you've submitted:

[P=6217957]

First thing: that 7-digit number is called a Part Color Code or PCC. These are
unique codes assigned by TLG which identify a particular part in a specific color.
A part in white, for example may have the PCC 6135522, but the same part in
black has the PCC 6001664. These numbers are not used as item numbers, but are
added as PCCs with a catalog change request after item approval.

To create the correct part number for your pending part, you need to find out
which item number is available. To do that, search for the part number with
an asterisk added. In this case, the part number is 98223, so search for 98223*.
You should see this:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogListOld.asp?searchMethod=searchBoth&q=98223*&itemBrand=1000&catType=&itemYear=&catID=&catLike=W

Then sort your results by Item Number and Down. This will reveal that the most
recently used part number was 98223pb014. Therefore, this pending part will
be numbered 98223pb015 when it is approved.

There is good news, though. You can edit your pending submissions by going to
your My Activity page and looking for pending items. There you can change titles,
categories, part numbers, etc.

Is finding the appropriate item number too much work? Yes. Ideally you should
be able to enter the part number and the system could simply assign the next
patterned number. Ideally there would also be less poverty in the world. We
must work with what we have.

Second thing: all titles should be submitted as you would want to see them in
the catalog. For this pending part it means capitalizing the last three words
(Crossed Arms Pattern).

You've got the weight and dimensions added, so I think that otherwise you're
good on this one once you add an image. The same issues exist with your other
pending submissions, like the title for this part:

[P=6217961]

Like I say, though, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Your submissions
should be approved, it will just take longer because of the extra work which
must go into spiffing them up to be official catalog entries.

Thank you, by the way, for taking the time to inventory this set. Duplo is one
of the neglected themes for which sets can go years without ever seeing an inventory.

Well, how can I submit images when they are already available as I saw when I
first put the set's number into the correct box?

Why can't the system take copies of those images and match them to the part?

I'm guessing that I'll need to change the part numbers from the LEGO
code to the BrickLink ones?

more work....

Lol

You must save these images to your computer and then submit them to bricklink
catalog.
when you were making inventory these images are only for help purpose, and are
taken from external LEGO database, so for the missing ones they are not in the
Bricklink database.
Images you can save from LEGO replacment parts service or also from here for
example:
https://brickset.com/inventories/10861-1 (this is your set)
Brickset takes these inventories from the same source.

  Why can't the system take copies of those images and match them to the part?

Yes numbers for the parts must be in bricklink style

  more work....

All decorated parts have their own entry with the same number as the main part
plus pb and following number in the numbering system of them in Bricklink.
So look at 4198 as an example, you have four new decotared version of this part.
Type in search 4198pb* (with asterisk), sort by "item number" and "down", result:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogListOld.asp?pg=1&q=4198pb%2A&catLike=W&itemBrand=1000&v=1
See all decoreted have their own separate entry. So you must now crate whole
new entry for four your parts. Thanks to this searching you see the next free
number will be
4198pb31. So crate 4 parts 4198pb with following numbers 4198pb31, 4198pb32,
4198pb33, 4198pb34, describe them in name - add in name what is their pattern.
You can see also in this search how other are named, you can create somthing
similar. But in name for this part there always must be "Duplo, Brick 2 x 4
x 2 Rounded Ends ... Pattern" for "..." you enter your description of pattern.
Then add photos for such crated parts.
Now repeat this for all your new decorated bricks: 31110, 3011, 98223, 31111.
Crate new entries with "pb".

I actually saw where I went wrong.

I'd listed the images before I'd changed the numbers of the parts, and
this accepted the images which was wrong as the part(s) were already in the catalogue!

I think I've done it correctly now, and all it need is for the naming of
the parts to be tidied up.

I've also added the dimensions of the set, and if the parts can be approved,
I can add them to the inventory.

Regards,

Paul

You can see also in this search how other are named, you can create somthing
similar. But in name for this part there always must be "Duplo, Brick 2 x 4
x 2 Rounded Ends ... Pattern" for "..." you enter your description of pattern.
Then add photos for such crated parts.
Now repeat this for all your new decorated bricks: 31110, 3011, 98223, 31111.
Create new entries with "pb".

I actually saw where I went wrong.

I'd listed the images before I'd changed the numbers of the parts, and
this accepted the images which was wrong as the part(s) were already in the catalogue!

I think I've done it correctly now, and all it need is for the naming of
the parts to be tidied up.

I've also added the dimensions of the set, and if the parts can be approved,
I can add them to the inventory.

Regards,

Paul

OK great

I've cancelled the original inventory as I couldn't add the newly added
parts from the catalogue, and the newer inventory is now submitted for approval.

The descriptions are adequate I think, but hopefully someone can submit split
images for the yellow 'face' elements, as this will be better than the
ones supplied by LEGO.COM

If this can be approved, it will be great as this means I'll be able to part
out the 2 sets that I have.

Thanks!

Paul

I've also added the correct colour image for the Dark Azure 2x3x2 curved
side brick, as it's a new colour for that part.

Cheers!

I have to say, thank you for approving this quickly as those 2 sets had been
bugging me for a while since I bought them to plunder the 2x4 Blue plates!

I think it's possible that I'll be doing more Duplo sets as I've
decided to get out of doing USED duplo as I have loads of vehicle elements that
I can't shift, and with all of the other parts that I have, they are just
taking up so much space that I could use for the normal LEGO elements.

Another reason why I'm getting out of the USED Duplo, is that there are more
and more Chinese Clones turning up at the car boot sales, so it will be really
hard to garner a decent return...

So, it depends upon whether I manage to see NEW Duplo at reduced prices or not.

Thanks, once again for the speedy approval of that set.

Regards,

Paul

  First thing: that 7-digit number is called a Part Color Code or PCC. These are
unique codes assigned by TLG which identify a particular part in a specific color.

For quite some time I've wondered why the term "PCC" is used on Bricklink,
instead of the LEGO-Company term "element id."

Does anyone know?

PCC describes the code better. The first PCC's were literally a combination
of a 4-digit part code and a 2-digit color code. Some of those original PCC's
are still being used:

3024+02

3024+21

3024+23

3024+24

The new 7-digit codes aren't "smart" like that, but they do represent the
part in a specific color, as opposed to the 5-digit mold number. PCC is easier
to read and type, too.

I think the question was “Why ‘PCC’ and not ‘Element ID,’ TLG’s term?”
As TLG calls PCCs “Element ID”s, the mould number being a “Design ID.”

PCC is more descriptive of the code than "Element ID".

Also, maybe nobody knew they were called Element IDs by LEGO back in those days.
In that case, BrickLink had to come up with something to call them.
