Amazon has officially released a new version of the Delivery and Inbound API, which aims to provide you with a flexible and seamless shipment creation experience through the new version of the Delivery and Inbound API and the Seller Central Shipment Creation Workflow “Send to Amazon” (STA for short). This will greatly improve your warehousing experience!
What are the advantages of the new API?
● You can choose from a variety of warehousing configuration service options, and the cost is clear at a glance
● Seamlessly switch between “Send to Amazon” (STA for short) and API, making shipment creation so easy!
● Check and select the scheduled delivery window (delivery window) for more relaxed planning!
● You can create an inventory plan for 1,500 SKUs at once, doubling the efficiency!(The old version only had 200 pieces ~)
● Obtain important data with one click, and keep track of shipment status at any time!
● Self-service SKU label printing, convenient and quick!
tips
Send to Amazon is Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA)'s new process for creating shipments. If you use FBA, creating a shipment is your first step in sending a shipment to an Amazon fulfillment center.
What do you need to do?
● Sellers directly integrated with the Amazon Delivery Inbound API: Hurry up and complete the migration before December 21, 2024, and start using the new API to create shipments as soon as possible!
● Sellers who use third-party software to create shipments: Contact your software vendor for updates!
● Sellers who only use “Send to Amazon” to create shipments in Seller Central: don't worry, you don't need to take any action~
