Overview

Amazon sellers who use Business Pricing (B2B) may need to remove business prices and quantity discounts from their listings. Whether you're discontinuing B2B offers, restructuring your pricing strategy, or cleaning up old SKUs, Amazon provides several methods to delete these pricing tiers. Understanding the correct process helps avoid pricing errors and ensures your catalog stays accurate.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Multiple deletion methods available — You can delete business prices through Seller Central's interface, via inventory feed files, or using XML files through a solution provider.
• Quantity discounts are automatically removed — When you delete a business price for a SKU, all quantity discount tiers associated with that SKU are also deleted automatically.
• Negotiated prices are not affected — Deleting a business price will not remove any negotiated prices you have set on that SKU, so those agreements remain intact.
• Feed templates require an updated version — If you are using a feed template downloaded before November 1, 2017, you must download a newer version that includes the required deletion column.
• Never enter zero as a price — When using feed files to delete business prices, use the designated "delete business_price" value rather than typing 0 in the price field.

Deleting Business Prices Through Seller Central

The most straightforward method is using the Seller Central interface directly. Navigate to the Inventory section and locate the Manage Business Pricing page. From there, find the SKU you want to modify and clear the value in the business price field using your backspace or delete key. If you need to remove a single business price, you can do so individually. For bulk removal, use the "select all" option in the heading to clear multiple business prices at once. This method is best suited for sellers managing a smaller number of B2B SKUs who prefer a hands-on approach.

Deleting Business Prices Using Feed Files

For sellers with larger catalogs, feed files offer a more efficient bulk approach. You can use a category-specific template, a general inventory template, or a custom flat file. These templates include an "update_delete" column that controls whether a business price should be removed on a per-SKU basis. To delete a business price, enter the SKU in the SKU column, then select or type "delete business_price" in the update_delete column. Save the file as a tab-delimited text file and upload it through Seller Central's feed upload tool. It is important to note that you should type the exact phrase "delete business_price" and not substitute a zero or any other value, as this could cause errors or unintended pricing changes.
