Scanning Box Contents
To allow you to be more efficient when sorting your items into boxes and providing box-level content to Amazon, we also include the option to scan the FNSKU on each item or the manufacturer barcode to assign it to a box. You can use a USB or a Bluetooth scanner to do this.
You can also have your FNSKU labels automatically print as you scan by having the option to print "During Scan to Pack" enabled within your Print Settings.
To begin, click on the shipment you would like to pack on the Box Content page. You will see the items that need to be assigned for that shipment appear on the left.
Locate the box you're ready to pack (or create a new one by clicking the + Button) and click the box to highlight it.
The scanning system begins automatically once the box is selected. You will notice that the system is now Listening for items and waiting for you to begin scanning.
Once you scan your item, you will see that a quantity of 1 has been added to your box. As you scan more of the same item, the quantity will increase. The item will also add to the total estimated weight of the box, and the total cost and value if you have those settings turned on.
Once you are finished scanning, you can move on the the next box.
If you need a new box, click the + Button and repeat the previous steps until all the items have been assigned to boxes.
