Attached both labels to the boxe(s) and ship the order out

-
– Amazon Partnered – LTL Shipment (AP – LTL)
-
– Amazon partnered – Small Parcel Shipment (AP SP – UPS)
-
– Non-Amazon Partnered – LTL
-
– If you want the system to auto confirm/approve the shipping charges for Amazon Partnered – LTL Shipment (AP – LTL), be sure to check the “Do You want to authorize Smart Center to approve Amazon’s freight charges on your behalf”. When you check this box, we will auto pull the BOL, if you do not check this box, be sure to go into your Amazon store to approve the charges so we can pull the BOL
-
– Once you are done with these settings, be sure to head to MMS > Channel Product and map all your SKUs to the channel. If not, your orders will not download
Note:
-
– Be sure that you have enough inventory before creating the replenishment order, your order will NOT download if your current inventory is short
-
– ONLY orders in “Working” Status on Amazon will be downloaded
-
– Be sure that your “Ship from Address” has exactly “1720 Dan Kipper Drive” otherwise orders will NOT be downloaded, because we do NOT want to download orders shipping from your other warehouse(s)
-
– Orders are downloaded every 30mins. Once an order is downloaded, it CANNOT be modified/changed and do NOT change the “Shipping Service” from Amazon as this may cause issues with the API communication
-
– Once an order is downloaded, you will need to do the following:
-
– Non-Amazon Partnered – LTL: Head to the “Shipping Details” page, enter the “Number of Boxes” and save. This required for us to be able to pull the carton labels from Amazon

-
– When you create an order, be sure to generate the carton labels (In Amazon). You do not need to load it in smart Center, but it needs to be created in Amazon so the system can pull them in
-
– Once an order is in READY status, the system will pull the pallet labels and BOL (For Amazon Partnered LTL)

-
– Max Qty to Update: Because different sellers have different selling capacity, its important that you (seller) knows how much you can sell. To estimate this, take the total qty you can sell and divide that by the number of SKU you have on eBay. The results rounded up to a whole number will be the max you can sell if you are to send all your products into eBay. My system will use this number to update the inventory every 30mins to keep your products from going down to ZERO.

Q: If I don’t like the Solution Provider I’ve chosen, can I switch to a different one? And can I decide to perform direct integration in the future? Would those changes affect my account?
A: Yes, you can switch to another Solution Provider or opt to use our direct integration method. This will not have any impact on the status of your account. To change your integration method, create a case for Partner Support via Seller Center and choose Partner Account/Profile – Working with a Solution Provider and a member of our Partner Support team will process your request.
