Amazon Financial Scorecard | Simply explained

Financial Scorecard

The Financial Scorecard is a tool used by Amazon vendors to track and address issues related to late or short payments. It provides an overview of transactions over a specified period, highlighting problems in invoicing, product supply, and catalog management that may lead to delayed payments.

  • Missing Invoices: Occur when shipments are received, but no corresponding invoice is processed. Vendors should ensure timely submission of invoices to facilitate payments.

  • Potential Shortages: Identifies invoicing discrepancies against receipts. Vendors are advised to ship products promptly or provide credit memos to release payments.

  • Remaining Shortages: These occur post-reconciliation and often need resolution through additional shipments or credit memos. Vendors should address these shortages quickly to settle disputes.

The Scorecard aids vendors in improving transaction accuracy and efficiency, thereby enhancing business operations with Amazon.
