2. Click "Add". You need to add at least two compatibilities.
3. To add notes for the compatibilities, right-click the "Notes" field and select "Add Note". Enter a description in the "Compatibility Note" window and then click "OK".
4. When finished adding the compatibility details, click "Next" so you can add more information about the product using item specifics.
   
   Add the appropriate item specifics for the item. Use the drop-down menus and fields to define characteristics about the item, and then click "Done", which returns you to the "Create New Item" form.
5. Enter the rest of the listing information for this item, and then click "Save".
