Setting Up the Inventory Adjustment Addon

When using Amazon Inventory Adjustments, there are several settings that need to be considered. You need to decide if you want to only receive inventory adjustment reports or if you want to also run inventory adjustment sync.

The leading practice when setting up Amazon Inventory Adjustments is as follows:

1. Inventory Adjustment Settings

2. Configuring Inventory Adjustment Mappings

3. Testing Inventory Adjustment

4. Setting up the Inventory Adjustment Scheduler

Inventory Adjustment Settings

The Amazon Inventory Adjustment settings can be configured in the Settings > Addon Settings > Inventory Adjustments screen of your Amazon Connector.

Configuring Inventory Adjustment Mappings

When you have Amazon Inventory Adjustments enabled, you can use the Inventory Adjustment transaction type to create inventory adjustment mappings in Amazon connector's Mappings > Other Transactions.

Testing Inventory Adjustment

After setting up inventory adjustment settings and mappings, you need to ensure that the Inventory Adjustment Addon is properly configured before setting up the scheduler. You can do so by testing by using the Test Inventory Adjustments feature to check if the data can be properly retrieved and posted as needed.

You can set inventory adjustments to run weekly or daily frequency.
