FBA Unreceived Shipments


Overview

Shipments may only be partially received for several reasons. The most common ones are that either Amazon is still in the process of receiving the shipment or the items got lost in transit. However, sometimes, an FBA shipment may get stuck in a partially received state when the shipment incorrectly states more quantity than what was shipped. When this happens, there will be more units in the In-Transit warehouse in Sellercloud than were actually shipped to and received by Amazon. On this page, you can:

  • View all unreceived or partially received FBA shipments in your Sellercloud account
  • Use search filters to show only specific unreceived or partially received shipments
  • Save your filters to effortlessly repeat searches
  • Sort the list of shipments based on different columns
  • Show or hide data columns from the list
  • Perform individual and bulk actions related to shipments

Page Overview

To access your unreceived FBA shipments, go to Inventory > FBA Inbound Shipments > Manage Unreceived Shipments.

The Manage Unreceived Shipments page consists of:

  1. Search Filters – Use to get specific results. You can save searches for repeat use.
  2. Search Results – A list of unreceived or partially received FBA shipments matching your search filters. You can sort it differently and show or hide data columns.
  3. Action – Actions related to unreceived or partially received FBA shipments.

Search Filters

Filters offer multiple-choice selection lists or allow you to enter specific values. Your choices build on each other. Each subsequent choice narrows the scope of your search results further and affects what the page displays. You can add as many filters as you like or none at all (Received Status and Dismissed filters cannot be removed). After you click Search, each filter you apply gets highlighted in orange or green. If a filter is gray or not displayed at all, it’s not active. You can add or remove filters and search again at any time.

Once you set up your filters, click Save View to save the search. Then, you can repeat the same search by selecting it from the Saved Views menu on the top right.

For a list of all filters and their descriptions, see the Filter Descriptions.

Search Results

The search results display a list of unreceived or partially received shipments matching your search criteria, with data columns showing various shipment details.

You can add, remove, and even reorder data columns. To do so, click the three dots icon at the top right and select Customize Columns. In the pop-up modal, you can reorder columns by dragging them vertically in the list. You can also sort the shipments list in a different order based on a specific column using the Sort by dropdown menu.

For a list of all data columns and their descriptions, see the Column Descriptions.

Actions

The Actions icon is located on the bottom right of the page. Select shipments from search results by checking the boxes to their left and clicking the Actions menu icon to manage all selected shipments. You can use the search to find a specific action quickly. Click the Star icon next to any frequently used action to pin it to the top of the actions list for quick access.

Some of these actions will display a notification at the bottom of the screen when used, telling you that a Queued Job has been created. You can click the link to the queued job to view it. Make sure to refresh the page to update the job’s Status.
