SellerLogic Lost & Found: Automated Identification of FBA Errors

A lot of money is lost due to unclaimed FBA errors.

Without intelligent automation, FBA errors can only be identified with great effort. If you do not make this effort for your company, chances are that you will lose a lot of money due to unclaimed reimbursements. Most people don’t have the know-how and/or the necessary time to manually analyze every small detail, merge the necessary reports and interpret errors. As a result, medium-sized companies who use FBA can lose several thousand euros a year. SellerLogic makes the FBA errors visible and supports you with preparation of data, documentation of cases and communication with Amazon. Use our unique solution now: SellerLogic Lost & Found.

Nobody Packs Perfectly. FBA Errors Happen. SellerLogic Lost & Found Detects Them for You.

The employees in Amazon shipping centers handle many complex logistics processes and work under enormous time and performance pressure.

ERP systems, booking systems, payment systems and transport systems carry out work steps during, before and after the process; customers receive articles and return articles. Errors cannot be avoided in such a complex work environment.

FBA errors can happen, but they must not be left undiscovered.

Functionality
Contract information
Setup
How do you get the FBA data / interface?

We use the Amazon Marketplace Web Service API interface and extract the data from the system that is relevant for our research.

Fees
Is the reimbursment a gross payment, are the 20% charged gross or net at the time of invoicing?

The 20% commission for Lost & Found is calculated on the total amount reimbursed by Amazon.

What Information is required from you and how will this information be used?

Our payment service provider requires our customers’ credit card data to process their payments, including the CVC2 number. This number consists of three- or four-digits which are printed (not embossed) on the credit card. This number is required by our payment service provider to verify the cardholder’s identity. The transmission of this number is a secure and standardized, international process. The processing of credit card data is carried out exclusively and under full PCI conformity by SellerLogic’s payment service provider. SellerLogic does not – at any time – hold or store information regarding the credit card data of its customers. If you have any further questions on this topic, don’t hesitate to contact our Customer Support team.

In closed cases and in “actual reimbursement “, is the Lost & Found fee already deducted?

No, the SellerLogic fees are shown in a separate section at transaction level.

When do you charge the 20%?

The fee will be invoiced at the beginning of the following month.

What are the consequences of not using Lost & Found or ignoring the problems?

Depending on the kind of error Amazon has different deadlines. The fee of 20% of the expected refund will be charged regardless of the further progress of the case. Note: On the other hand, it doesn’t make sense not to claim a possible refund for yourself by using L&F, it’s your money, after all!

Dealing with cases
Do I have to manually enter every result of a case in Seller Logic to report the result or does this happen automatically?

If there is a query or notification from Amazon (except for reimbursement confirmations), please copy-paste it into SellerLogic in the case and send it to us. We cannot automatically access the cases.

If Amazon does not agree to a reimbursement, will I get another pre-formulated answer from SellerLogic for Amazon?

No, but our Customer Support will assist you with the analysis and checking of the answer. Please communicate this directly in the SellerLogic system for the case.

Does SellerLogic close the cases automatically by using the information from Seller Central?

The cases will be closed once the payment has been issued, this way we ensure that the promised reimbursement by Amazon actually takes place.

So far, how has Amazon responded to the standard messages generated by Lost & Found?

Since the cases are justified, Amazon reimburses without any objections.

Functionality
Could there be an issue if I (additionally) check incoming shipments (to Amazon) manually via the delivery schedule (shipping menu) and apply for reimbursements myself?

If the case was opened at Amazon for a delivery before the case was published by Lost & Found, the case will be closed free of charge.

Why are reimbursements partially differentiated from actual reimbursements?

The calculation is based on an average selling price over a certain period of time, which we do not always have in its entirety. The amount of the expected reimbursement is for only for guidance.

What about products which are damaged on their way to the customer and for which Amazon simply sends a “new” product?

We also detect such errors. Restitution can be claimed from Amazon for up to 6 months.

What about goods that are incorrectly booked into Amazon when they arrive, where I can open a case myself. Do I have to pay the 20% fee?

If the case was opened at Amazon for a delivery before the case was published by Lost & Found, the case will be closed free of charge.

In my cases, no expected reimbursement is displayed. What could be the reason?

We are lacking the necessary data.

Is Lost & Found also used to record shipments that were not returned or only those that were lost in the Amazon warehouse?

Orders that have not been returned and have already been reimbursed by Amazon are also recorded.

Contract informationen
What about an order data processing contract (ADV) and the GDPR guidelines?

No order data processing contract (ADV) is required to use Lost & Found, as we do not access any customer data. A corresponding contract is made available to the Repricer.

Is it also possible to book only the Lost & Found module or do I have to book it together with the Repricer?

You can book each module separately.

How long is the notice period?

It can be cancelled daily. But after deactivation, all open cases must be processed within the set period.

Do you have any questions?

Our support is there for you.
