Corps wont sell products automatically

Hello,
I am having problems with about half of my corps not selling their products on the open market automatically. The ones that wont sell automatically have their products go into their respective corps stockpiles but will not put them up for sale on the open market. I can manually do it and they get sold ok but it is getting quite frustrating and tiring to do it manually all the time when i dont have a bunch of time to dedicate to do this. I have tried to set them to do it in the automatic settins but it does no good. thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

try adding your country name and planet so that people can check and respond.

Sometimes the trade strategy can make products not sell even if they are on the market.

Check your automatic settings. there needs to be a check in the box in the column for automatic sales.

ok ravenous canibal thanks alot. I do believe I have set the automatic settings correctly but will try again. There are some corps that i want to have sell products automatically and others that i dont. The automatic settings may help if i want to have all corps sell automatically. What do you suggest if there are some that i want to have sell automatically and others to just sell to my own country ?
thanks alot again.

The automatic page has a row of boxes for each corporation. There needs to be a mark in the column for sell product automatically.

There is another column for "retain product". If you put a check in this box the corporations will save enough product to fill your contract.

Note that buying from your corps is usually very bad for your countries economy. Setting the country supplies quality to 100 can reduce your expenses.

thanks alot ravenous

ok got it figured out. was doing the settings for new corporations thinking it would automate existing corps. set the auto settings further down the page to the individual corps. works well. just need to set the individual sale settings for each corp within the individual trade settings so i can sell product. should i just go ahead and set everyone to best price or try playing with the sale price ?
