Inventory
01 Seasonal removal of volatile inventory
April 15
Amazon's US station email stated that the heat-resistant temperature of fusible products stored in Amazon's fulfillment centers, such as chocolate, fudge, and some jelly-like products and waxy products, is 23.9-68.3 degrees Celsius in summer. From April 15th to October 15th, fusible inventory will not be accepted or delivered.
Create a removal order in advance to another address; apply for an exemption: If the seller's friend believes that the product sold is not a fusible product in Amazon's ban, you can send a letter from the manufacturer to Amazon's sales partner to apply for an exemption.

FBA Logistics Policy
01 FBA Shipment Policy Update
From April 1st
The seller deletes the shipment after approving the inbound plan; the shipment is sent to the wrong Amazon fulfillment center; the seller sends an incomplete shipment, for example: a shipment with a "cancelled" or "deleted" status.
If seller friends send canceled or deleted shipments to Amazon, these shipments may be rejected, causing delays and affecting the time to warehouse and shelves.
When creating an inbound plan, specify quantities, included items, and other information; ship quantities and included items are consistent with those detailed in the inbound plan; after approving a multi-destination inbound plan, do not delete the Send shipments in any part, or along other routes, and make sure all shipments arrive at the fulfillment center within 30 days of Amazon receiving the first shipment; make sure the FBA box number label is clearly visible.
