Option to allow Amazon FBA oders to be created as shipped

started a topic almost 8 years ago

Currently, we must process each order that comes through Amazon FBA manually.  This causes a lot of extra work for each order: opening each one, marking it as shipped, then okay, it's being fulfilled externally. 

We would love an option to turn that manual authorization requirement off, given we understand we may miss some errors in shipments.  Alternatively, we would be satisfied if we could preform a bulk action to mark those orders to mark them as shipped.


During times of high order volume, having to open hundreds of FBA orders to authorize shipment adds 2 to 3 hours of unnecessary work to each day!  That's a lot of wasted money for us - we're a small company with limited resources and a $100 + each week spent on an employee doing busy work really takes a bite out of our profit.

  • FINALLY - thank you!



  • This is much better than before however if you are a seller who uses FBA for some items and Seller Fulfilled for others then option #1 below will not necessarily be good for you as it will close ALL orders coming from Amazon regardless of who fulfills them (not just the FBA orders). ONLY FBA orders need to be automatically closed. Seller fulfilled orders need to stay open so they can be processed.


    Option #2 makes the process much easier (as long as you remember to disable "Also Export Orders Fulfilled Externally" in the Shipstation integration).


    "1. Set Auto Pick + Pack + Ship in Amazon integration page. Orders will auto complete as long as there is sufficient inventory quantities available in FBA warehouse.


    2. Bulk complete FBA orders from View All Sales screen by selecting the orders to complete and using Bulk Actions."

  • Couldn't agree more Nachshon - however we may need to start another post for this. DEAR doesn't currently recognise that you can have AFN and MFN listings in one integration.
