Editing Quantity of an Item in a Working Shipment

Box Content On - Proposed FBA Shipments Page

With Box Contents On or Off, you can change the quantity of items in shipments once you have created a proposed shipment or used the Add to Working Shipment option on the Proposed FBA Shipments page.

At that point, the Qty field for each item in the shipment becomes editable in the Selected Shipping Plan Contents area.

 

To change the quantity of an item in a shipment, click in the Qty field and change the value. After clicking out of the field or pressing Tab or Enter/Return on your keyboard, you will see that the new quantity has been saved for the item.

Note: You must also still abide by the 5% or 6 unit rule from Amazon that limits how much you can change quantity.  (You will see a pop-up warning you of this if you attempt to make changes outside of these limits.)

 

You can also delete items completely by changing the Qty field value to zero or clicking the trashcan icon.

 

Once you are happy with the items in the shipments, click the Enter Box Contents button to move to the Box Content page.

 

 

Box Content On - Box Content Page Prior to Sending Box Content

If you have moved past the Proposed FBA Shipments page, and are on the Box Content page for the shipments, it's not too late to change the quantity of items in them if needed.

 

To change the quantity of an item in a shipment, click in the Qty field and change the value. After clicking out of the field or pressing Tab or Enter/Return on your keyboard, you will see that the new quantity has been saved for the item.

Note: You must also still abide by the 5% or 6 unit rule from Amazon that limits how much you can change quantity.  (You will see a pop-up warning you of this if you attempt to make changes outside of these limits.)

 

If you need to decrease the quantity of an item that is assigned to multiple boxes, you will need to adjust the quantities assigned to the box(es) prior to adjusting the number in the Qty field. This is because the system is unsure which box to remove the quantities from automatically.

For example, if the quantity of the item pictured below needed to be changed from 5 units to 4, an error will appear since the units are assigned to two different boxes.

 

However, unassigning 1 unit from the box to match what was removed from the shipment prior to adjusting the Qty field bypasses this.

  

You can also delete items completely by changing the Qty field value to zero or clicking the trashcan icon.

 

Once you have made your changes, and assigned all the remaining items to boxes, Transmit your box content information to Amazon following these steps- Providing Box Content - Private Workflow
