After you have clicked the button to Transmit Boxes to Seller Central in Stratify, we begin to process something called a feed. This is how the box content data from Stratify is transferred over to Seller Central.
Once Amazon has processed the feed successfully, you will see a green Success message in Stratify.
From here, you will finish up getting your boxes prepped, fully sealed and packed, weigh them, and provide the dimensions detail to Seller Central.
To do this in Seller Central, click Inventory from the top menu bar, then click Manage FBA Shipments from the menu.
Click the Work on Shipment button located to the right of the shipment you’d like to complete.
If you scroll down to section 3, you will see that Amazon Marketplace Web Services has already been pre-selected for you as a way of providing your Box Content information.
This is because when you first created your batch in Stratify with Box Content turned On, you indicated that you’d like to provide your Box Content using feeds from our service. Amazon blocks you from changing this once selected to prevent conflicting information from being submitted.
If you did not enter the weight & dimensions for your boxes in Stratify, you will need to enter them for box numbers that are automatically carried over from Stratify. Provide the weight, length, width, and height of each box.
Keep in mind that you already know the number of boxes in your shipment, as well as the order of those boxes, due to the information provided in Stratify. The order you enter this information is very important because you want them to line up Stratufy with Seller Central.
If you are unsure of your box names, etc., and need a reminder of the contents, visit Stratify>List>List & Prep and click the 3 horizontal lines next to the Working Shipment you are working on. Choose "Box Content Information" from the menu and you can review the boxes and contents of those boxes.
Stratify's box names are created in numerical order, just like Amazon’s.
Example 1:
Box name U001 in Stratify = Box 1 in Seller Central when putting in dimensions = Box name ending in U001 on your shipping label
Box name U002 in Stratify = Box 2 in Seller Central when putting in dimensions = Box name ending in U002 on your shipping label
HOWEVER
If you skip a sequence in Stratify (say you had Box U001, U002, and U003… but then you deleted Box U002), the order will be a little off.
Example 2:
Box name U001 in Stratify = Box 1 in Seller Central when putting in dimensions = Box name ending in U001 on your shipping label
Box name U003 in Stratify = Box 2 in Seller Central when putting in dimensions = Box name ending in U002 on your shipping label
To make everything as simple as possible, we recommend doing to your best to avoid the need to delete any box names.
After weighing and measuring your boxes, calculate and agree to your shipping charges.
Then, print your shipping labels.
Assuming no box names were skipped in Statify like Example 1 above, the name on the 2nd page of your shipping label should correspond to the name of your box in Stratify:
Finally, click Complete Shipment.
