Monitor Amazon Seller FBA Inbound Shipments

Overview Inbound Shipments

To keep your FBA inventory stocked, you regularly send shipments to Amazon. It’s not uncommon for differences to occur between the quantities you plan to send and the quantities that Amazon actually receives and records.

Especially when you ship multiple deliveries each week, these discrepancies can easily go unnoticed.

You can view all your shipments in one place on the Seller FBA Shipments page:

Background

When sending your merchandise to Amazon, it’s not uncommon to find discrepancies between the quantities you declared and the quantities Amazon has received.

On the Seller Inbound Shipments page, you’ll find an overview of all your inbound shipment plans. To quickly identify any missing items, click Show differences only and review the closed shipment plans. Discrepancies to your disadvantage are highlighted in red.

Keep in mind that Amazon may need some time to fully process and book incoming goods. However, shipment plans with the status “Closed” and notable shortfalls may warrant a follow-up with Seller Support.

AMALYTIX has already helped many sellers detect differences that would have otherwise gone unnoticed amid the daily flow of operations.
