Monitor Amazon Vendor Inventory

Why This Page Matters

As a Vendor, it’s crucial to know how long your inventory at Amazon will last. When a product goes out-of-stock, you not only lose sales but also visibility in search results.

With the Vendor Inventory page, you can monitor all important metrics to replenish in time and avoid out-of-stock situations.

Overview of Stock Levels

Overview of the Amazon vendor inventory in AMALYTIX

On the Vendor Inventory page, you can view all your products with key inventory metrics. At a glance, you can identify:

  • Which products might soon go out-of-stock
  • Which products Amazon classifies as overstock
  • How well your delivery performance is

Sourcing vs. Manufacturing View

Amazon distinguishes between two views in Vendor Central:

  • Sourcing (src): Metrics from the product sourcing perspective
  • Manufacturing (mnf): Metrics from the manufacturing perspective

In AMALYTIX, both views are available. Columns are labeled with (src) or (mnf). By default, sourcing columns are displayed. You can enable manufacturing columns through the column selector.
