# How to fix the Etsy error: Missing readiness state
When working with Etsy listings in LitCommerce, you may come across the error *“Error while syncing: All offerings need readiness state”*.
This error occurs because the Processing Profile information is not provided. As part of a recent Etsy update, the Processing Profile field is now available and required under the Shipping tab in the LitCommerce Etsy listing details page and within the [Shipping & Return Template](https://help.litcommerce.com/en/article/how-to-create-etsy-templates-recipes-1f3mgnw/#3-shipping-return-template).
Existing Active listings listed on Etsy via LitCommerce before **September 30, 2025** will be missing the Processing Profile. This results in the marketplace returning an error when the tool attempts to sync the data.
There are a few ways to resolve this:
* Manually select the appropriate Processing Profile on each listing details page and click `Save & Publish`.
* Edit the Shipping & Return Template and save data to update the Processing Profile information for bulk listings.
* Perform `Update From Etsy` to import the corresponding Processing Profile data into LitCommerce. This can be done in bulk.
Processing Profiles must be set up directly in your Etsy Shop Manager before selecting in LitCommerce. Refer to [this article](https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/articles/115015588087-How-to-Set-Processing-Times-Processing-Profiles-and-Ship-By-Dates?segment=selling) for more details.
After completing the necessary actions, wait around 60 minutes for LitCommerce to clear the error message or perform `Update To Etsy` to trigger an immediate update.
