Overview

Amazon provides FBA sellers with a dedicated inventory dashboard that offers a comprehensive snapshot of all products stored in and moving through the fulfillment network. This page is essential for monitoring stock levels, identifying unsellable units, and keeping tabs on estimated fees — all critical factors in maintaining a healthy and profitable FBA business.

Key Points / What Sellers Need to Know

• Inbound inventory tracking — The dashboard shows how many units of each product are currently assigned to shipping plans, in transit to fulfillment centers, or being received and processed at a facility. This gives sellers visibility into stock that is on its way but not yet available for sale.

• Available inventory count — Sellers can see exactly how many units of each SKU are ready to ship to customers. This is the number that matters most for avoiding stockouts and lost sales.

• Unfulfillable inventory alerts — The dashboard flags units that are physically present in fulfillment centers but cannot be sold. These may be damaged, defective, or otherwise not in sellable condition, and they still incur storage fees.

• Reserved inventory breakdown — Units can be reserved for several reasons: they may still be processing at the fulfillment center, tied to a pending customer order, or in the process of being transferred between Amazon warehouses. Understanding reserved quantities helps sellers avoid confusion about why available stock appears lower than expected.

• Estimated fee visibility — Each product listing includes an estimate of the fulfillment fees that will apply once the item sells. This helps sellers evaluate profitability at the SKU level without leaving the inventory page.

• Storage volume metrics — The dashboard displays the volume measurement for each product as it relates to FBA storage fee calculations. Since storage fees are assessed based on cubic footage, this data point is important for managing costs, especially during peak surcharge periods.
