Overview
Sellercloud offers an FBA Reconciliation report that shows discrepancies between units that should be in FBA versus those that are currently in FBA. This report is generated using data from multiple Amazon reports, including All Orders, Returns, Reimbursements, and Removals. While Amazon provides an FBA reconciliation report as well, theirs is provided per shipment whereas Sellercloud’s report reconciles your entire inventory at FBA in a more comprehensive manner. You can learn more about the data included in this report below.
