Overview

The Manage Orders page is one of the most frequently visited sections of Amazon Seller Central, serving as the central hub where sellers view, track, and fulfill their incoming orders. Whether you handle fulfillment yourself or rely on Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), understanding how to navigate this page efficiently can help you stay on top of shipping deadlines, avoid cancellations, and keep your account health metrics in good standing.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Centralized order view — The Manage Orders page consolidates all of your orders into a single sortable table, regardless of whether they are seller-fulfilled, FBA, or multi-channel orders.
• Multi-marketplace support — If you sell across multiple Amazon marketplaces (such as amazon.com, amazon.ca, or amazon.com.mx), orders from all linked storefronts appear in one unified list.
• Ship-by deadlines matter — Each seller-fulfilled order displays a "confirm shipment by" date. Missing this deadline can result in automatic cancellation and negatively impact your account health.
• Buyer type indicators — Orders may include labels indicating the type of buyer, such as business (B2B) customers. Business orders may require a packing slip and purchase order number.
• Quick actions available — Directly from the orders list, you can print packing slips, confirm shipments, buy shipping labels, and cancel orders without navigating away from the page.

Navigating the Orders List

To access the Manage Orders page, log in to Seller Central, click on "Orders" in the main navigation menu, and then select "Manage Orders." The page presents a table with multiple columns that provide key details about each transaction. You can sort the list by order date to prioritize the most recent or oldest orders first. Each order row includes the order ID (which links to a detailed order page), the product title, quantity ordered, ASIN, SKU, and the current fulfillment status. For sellers managing high volumes, sorting and filtering options make it easier to focus on orders that need immediate attention, such as those approaching their ship-by deadlines.
