FBA Stranded Inventory
Hi All!
I've seen several threads about sellers who have struggled with stranded FBA inventory, and in light of the season, just wanted to share some helpful insight to help you troubleshoot those issues before reaching out to support!
Stranded inventory is FBA inventory in fulfillment centers that does not have an associated active offer and thus is not available for sale on Amazon. When inventory is stranded, it requires either reactivating the listing or removing inventory.
When you delete or close a listing, or change it from Fulfilled by Amazon to Fulfilled by Merchant, it might strand your inventory. Product listing issues, infringement concerns, or system errors can also result in stranded inventory.
Amazon will notify you about stranded inventory in three ways:
* By email
* Under Fix stranded inventory in the Notification section of your Inventory Dashboard
Note: If you address the cause for the stranded inventory yourself, please allow 24 hours for the updates to reflect in your stranded inventory.
