Connect the Amazon Seller accounts in the WebBee app:
Authorize and connect each Amazon Seller account (e.g., Amazon FBA US, Amazon FBA INDIA, Amazon FBA JP).
Once connected, these accounts will be visible in the WebBee app.
Start by verifying that each Shopify product has a unique SKU.
If the SKU is not unique, assign a unique SKU to the product.
Navigate to Shopify Admin > Settings > Locations.
Create a separate location in Shopify for each Amazon Seller account.
Name the locations accordingly:
Example: For Amazon FBA US, name the Shopify location "Amazon FBA US" and ensure the country is set to "USA" in it.
If you have connected other Amazon Market Places in the WebBee app, then create more locations for these marketplaces and ensure the country is set as per the Amazon Marketplace.
Example: For Amazon FBA Canada, create a Shopify location for Amazon FBA CA and ensure the country is set to Canada.
Assign these Shopify locations to the relevant Shopify products.
Note: Once locations are created, do not manually edit inventory numbers in these Shopify locations, as the WebBee app manages inventory updates.
Open the WebBee App > Product Linking section and click on Sync Item Manually.
The Shopify SKU will appear. Check if the Amazon FBA SKU is mapped:
If not, retrieve the product SKU from the Amazon Seller account.
Paste the SKU by clicking on Update.
Note: Avoid mapping ASIN or FNSKU in this process; only use the SKU.
If multiple Amazon marketplaces are added (e.g., Amazon FBA US, Amazon FBA INDIA):
Repeat the above steps for each marketplace.
In Product Linking from "Accounts,” from the drop-down select the Amazon FBA market, and then repeat the above mapping process.
In the WebBee App > Configuration > scroll down to Amazon MCF Marketplace Settings and select the relevant Amazon marketplace (e.g., US).
Click on [+] Show Additional Settings (Including Inventory Sync Settings).
Locate the setting Shopify Location to Use for Inventory Update and map the appropriate Shopify location:
For Amazon FBA US, select the "Amazon FBA US" location you have created in your Shopify.
Repeat this for other marketplaces, ensuring that each location is mapped correctly.
Required: Do not assign the same Shopify location to multiple Amazon marketplaces. For example, "Amazon FBA US" should only be mapped to the US marketplace, not Amazon FBA INDIA.
6. Enable Inventory Sync
Ensure Auto Import Inventory from Amazon FBA to Shopify is enabled for each Amazon marketplace.
Optionally, click on Update Inventory:
The inventory sync is already in process if the button is grayed out.
Note: Inventory sync runs automatically every 30 minutes.
If the client uses the Out of Stock Quantity Buffer on Amazon, the WebBee app will deduct the buffer quantity and Sync the remaining inventory to Shopify.
Example: If a Shopify product, also an FBA product, has an inventory of 100 in Amazon FBA and the buffer is set to 20, the WebBee app will sync 80 to Shopify.
If the inventory in Amazon FBA for the product reaches 20 or fewer, the WebBee app will update the inventory as 0 in Shopify to maintain the buffer on Amazon Seller.
If the client has selected Must Use Blank Box for All Orders, the WebBee app will update the inventory of blank box orders only, regardless of the product inventory in Amazon FBA.
You can set a quantity buffer at the SKU level:
Go to WebBee App > Product Linking > Select Account > Search SKU > Action > Update > Amazon Buffer Quantity.
Enter the buffer quantity for the SKU. The WebBee app will deduct this buffer and sync the remaining inventory for the specific product.
If the client enables this feature and creates a virtual bundle using an Amazon SKU linked to more than one Shopify product, the WebBee app will divide the inventory accordingly among the Shopify products, affecting the inventory numbers for these Bundle Products Only.
By following these steps, inventory updates are effectively made and potential issues are avoided with stock discrepancies.
