Restock Inventory

Restock Inventory relates to the amount of replenishment you should send to Amazon FCs and when you should send it to stay in stock. The recommendations are also meant to give you with information that you can use to weigh the cost of running out of stock (missed sales) vs the expense of holding extra inventory (carrying costs and additional storage fees).

Amazon delivers this information via their FBA Restock Inventory Tool, which takes into consideration your account's sales history, demand prediction and seasonality, and replenishment preferences. You may also use this tool to adjust your lead time, case pack amount, replenishment frequency, and supply chain variables to receive a more accurate resupply recommendation.

However, keep in mind that this instrument is not without flaws. Furthermore, when compared to other inventory management systems available, its customization options are very limited. This is why:

-Amazon only considers total recent sales and ignores your daily adjusted sales velocity, which eliminates sales spikes and stockouts from the calculation.
-Amazon's restock recommendation algorithm also does not take into account separate lead times for supplier versus 3PL, order versus transfer (warehouse to FBA) frequencies, inventory on hand at 3PLs or inventory on order at suppliers, and marketing plans (projected sales growth from advertising or promotions).

If even one crucial variable is left out of the equation, you're likely to order too much or too little stock owing to reorder quantity miscalculations. The idea is that you should not depend exclusively on Amazon's replenishment suggestions for reorders.

It's preferable to utilise a fully configurable inventory management system so you may create (and automate) a reordering procedure that's particularly matched to your company's requirements.

Amazon Meltable Inventory

Meltable inventory includes all heat-sensitive items, such as chocolate, candy, and some jelly- and wax-based products.

Between October 16 and April 14, FBA only accepts meltable inventory. Those stored or arriving at FCs between April 15 and October 15 are labelled "Unfulfillable" and must be removed for a charge.

Furthermore, perishable commodities such as fresh meats, fruits, and vegetables that require refrigeration, air conditioning, or freezing are forbidden all year.

During the summer, products in FCs are often stored and shipped at temperatures ranging from 75 to 155 degrees Fahrenheit. However, we don't know if Amazon charges additional storage rates for certain heat-sensitive items because they may require some refrigeration, especially during the summer months.

Stickerless, Amazon Commingled Inventory

The term "commingle" refers to the mixing of two or more items. When individuals talk about Amazon commingled inventory, they're referring to a collection of items with the same manufacturer barcode.

Products in commingled inventory lack a unique merchant ID (thus the phrase "stickerless") and are grouped together based on their manufacturer barcodes, such as the European Article Number (EAN), Universal Product Code (UPC), or International Standard Book Number (ISBN).

How does it function?

The service of commingled inventory is optional. You can bypass the labelling procedure and dispatch your cargo to FBA directly after selecting this option from your seller account. The FBA FC staff then stores your items among other sellers' identical products.

When a consumer purchases your goods, Amazon will select any item from the mixed inventory and mail it to the buyer. Most of the time, the item chosen will come from the nearby FC to save time and money on shipping, letting consumers to receive their orders sooner.

While the order will be reimbursed to you, the product chosen by Amazon may not be the same as the one you sent in.

This implies you have no control over the product's legitimacy or quality when it is delivered to your consumer. And, if a consumer makes a counterfeit complaint against you, it will be difficult to verify whether the product was truly yours or not because there is no unique label identification that can be used to link it back to you.

To keep such risks low, Amazon sees to it that the products that go into their commingled inventory are:

-In new condition
-Not perishable, consumable, or topical products
-Not expiration-dated
-Not within the dangerous goods category
-All feature a single readable UPC, EAN or ISBN barcode matching a single ASIN in Amazon’s catalogue
-Packaging must have a label with identifiers such as title, color, and model number in addition to the corresponding EAN, UPC or ISBN barcode

If you wish to avoid commingled inventory, ensure sure each of your goods has the right Amazon barcode. The Fulfilment Network Stock Keeping Unit (FNSKU) barcode is used by Amazon to identify, track, and link your FBA items back to you.

After you create an FBA shipping plan, Amazon will produce a FNSKU barcode for you. The label may then be printed and attached to your goods. If you don't want to handle these things yourself, you may sign up for Amazon's FBA Label Service and have them apply the labels for you for a price per item.

Anticipation Inventory

Anticipation inventory is inventory retained seasonally to meet predicted increases in demand.

Sellers of summer apparel pieces such as swimwear, for example, must obtain enough swim trunks, bikinis, wetsuits, boardshorts and tank tops, among other items, to account for a projected sales boost owing to a change in season.

When organising your anticipatory inventory, check your calendar to ensure that you don't miss any major selling occasions such as Mother's Day, Father's Day, Back to School, Prime Day, Black Friday/Cyber Monday, and the holiday sales season.
