How To: View Stock Levels on the Amazon FBA Site

Once you have setup your Amazon FBA channel and then either transferred your stock to the site or raised purchase orders to deliver your goods to Amazon, you will need to monitor the stock levels. FBA sales orders will be fulfilled from the stock held in the FBA site thus reducing the quantity held there. Monitoring the stock can be achieved from several screens in Khaos Control depending on what you would like to do.

Historical Valuation

The [ Accounts | Stock Value | Historical Valuation ] screen displays stock valuation and history based on past stock movements. The site filter allows you to filter for your Amazon FBA site.

Aged Analysis

The [ Accounts | Stock Value | Aged Analysis ] screen will allow you to see the amount of your stock Amazon holds and the stock levels.

Note: sock Adjusted in will not display as delivered so the Delivery Countdown option won't work with adjusted stock levels.

Period Analysis

The [ Accounts | Stock Value | Period Analysis ] screen gives an overview of what has happened to your stock other than sales and deliveries, for example customer returns and the number of items adjusted in.

Site Stock

The [ Accounts | Stock Value | Site Stock ] screen displays the stock held in different sites along with sales per stock item for the site, see How To: View stock sales and levels across sites. When using sites, this screen is a valuable tool for reporting on more than one site at the same time, viewing the stock holdings and sales during the specified date range and being able to compare them.

View the stock on the FBA Site

Stock that populates the [ Stock | List ] screen displays only the stock level for the site the user is currently logged into. To view stock levels for a particular item in [ Stock | List ] screen, focus on the item and from the context menu select [ Other Actions | Show Other Sites... ] to display the Stock Site Levels For dialog. This shows the 'Order', 'Assigned' and 'Available' level for that particular stock item against every site setup on your system. Totals for all numerical columns are displayed at the bottom of the Stock Site Levels For dialog.

The Stock Site Parameters dialog allows user to update stock levels across multiple sites for green-selected items for the following options:

  • Reorder Period
  • Buffer Level
  • Reorder Point
  • Safe Level
  • Min Level

It is accessed from the context menu option [ Update Selected Stock Items | Site Stock Parameters ] in the [ Stock | List ]screen. The results for a stock item can be viewed using the BtnDefineForSiteSk.jpg button in the [ Stock | Detail | Properties ] screen.

Sales Summary

When reporting in any area of Sales Summary the system will return data for all sites unless Site has been chosen and filtered on.

Note: Management Reports will only display figures for the site you are currently logged into.

Stock Item

Stock levels for a stock item can be viewed in different sites by either:

Stock Details

In the [ Stock | Details | Properties ] tab the stock level information is displayed in the bottom right hand corner of the screen for the site the user is currently logged into.

To see the stock levels for the stock item you are currently looking at, click on the BtnSkShowSitesX.jpg button on the bottom left button bar.

Reorder

By default the site filter in the [ Stock | Reordering ] screen will default to the current site, so if you are not logged into your Amazon FBA site then you can change the filter. This can then be used to see how much stock is in the site and if necessary create a new purchase order and have the stock delivered straight to Amazon.
