If it seems any Top or Hot selling item is low in stock we can send them to FBA.&nbsp; So that we never lose the sale due to unavailability of an item in Amazon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the daily inventory report, we can know how many products in total &#8220;FBA&#8221; quantity available in Amazon Warehouse right now and how many quantities&#8217; lefts in Amazon Warehouse. From this report, we can get a recommendation for an item we need to send to Amazon Warehouse. To prepare the current stock report in FBA, we need to use the tools that are provided on the Amazon website as well as any third party applications like channeladvisor, Linnworks, Sellercloud etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this article, we will be describing how to create a daily inventory report file on Amazon.

Again, this is the result of having created wrong SKUs in the past. What we did to fix it is to create the correct formatted SKU, under the same ASIN again. But once we have created the wrong SKU in FBA Inventory, it is there forever and we are not able to delete it from our system again. There might be multiple SKU under the same ASIN and we have to remove duplicate ASIN. Remove the wrong SKU and leave only the correct SKU that is live on FBA.
