📌 Remember that Amazon will not receive further updates after the Shipped status, so it won’t be possible to update Amazon with further tracking statuses such as Delivered

 

📌 By Amazon's request, for GDPR reasons after 30 days we have to proceed to anonymize customer data, therefore you'll no longer be able to display them after that period

4. FAQs

How do I know that Amazon is correctly connected?

If the connection is correctly established, you'll receive a positive message telling you that the marketplace was successfully connected.

When and where will my orders be imported?

After Amazon is successfully connected, all your pending orders will be imported with all the order details and product images in Label Creator > To Ship , ready to be shipped in a few clicks.

 

Obviously, the higher the volume of orders to import, the longer it will take to complete the importation. To avoid long waiting times, the orders will be imported in batches of 80 orders maximum. This feature will allow you to progressively see orders appearing in To Ship, even if you have a big volume of orders to import.

 

Example: if you have 300 Amazon orders to ship, 80 orders will display on the first import, after 10 minutes we'll import 80 new orders for a total of 160, and so on. The 300 orders will thus be imported within about 30 minutes. There is no need for any further action on your side.

 

Can I connect my Amazon Seller Central account to more than one ShippyPro profile?

That is not advisable as it might cause discrepancies in the synchronization of orders imported into ShippyPro and in the update of orders on Amazon, once shipped.

 

What is the default Incoterm on Amazon?

On Amazon, the default Incoterm is always DAP.
