FBA shipment issues

Damp Seal White 500ml

Their catalogue team is removing the duplicate mapping and has asked for it to be expedited. Once fixed we can create FBA shipments using the manufacturer barcode.

No action for us for now. Amazon will reply on the same email thread once the fix is confirmed.

Amazon fixing

Masonry Black 500ml

Issue not fixed yet, but we are still sending units in with the ASIN barcode. Chasing Lucas with the account manager.

Barcode

Clear Lacquer 1 Litre

Sent the 6 sided images for the case on Wednesday 16 September.

We are still able to send it in, but we need to make sure it has the right DG status so it does not cause problems later.
