Amazon MWS update product using _POST_PRODUCT_DATA_ / Product feed

Question

I want to update the ShippingWeight in some of our products.

I think the Product feed should do this for me.

The feed below seems to work fine, the data is updated in amazon, but I get an error response.

What's wrong with the feed, why do I get an error response even though the updates are done ?

I tried Update and PartialUpdate.

The error response looks like an error on creating new products.

And why do I have to specify the "Title" element when updating the ShippingWeight (Title does not have minOccurs="0" in xsd) :-(

Here's my feed:

Here's amazon's response:

Thanx a lot in advance.

Adding a element with amazon's ASIN and the error has gone. Solved. — nrx, Aug 05 '13 at 08:22
I'm surprised by this because the field is for GTINs (UPC, EAN, ISBN). I have this message working with just my seller SKU. — user2867342, Jun 01 '16 at 12:01

You have a bad SKU number. You can not send in request fiction SKU number. I found some and tried to use RO7WA11930KB1CA1A - hat.
