While items missing recommended attributes will process successfully, we recommend including relevant attributes if they are available.

The products do not have a brand and are not Handmade or Custom - do I insert a made up brand name and if so where? (under manufacturer in product details?)

Manufacturer and that would be in admin.

Then when you list a new item you add the manufacturer.
