Why do Listings become Inactive on Seller Portal although listings are FBA Enabled and have inventory in Seller Portal?
Amazon expects that the product dimension received at packing time should match the product dimension defined on the Seller Portal for the respective SKU. Amazon made the listing inactive if there is a difference in both dimensions.
The seller can make the listing active again by updating the correct dimension on the Seller Portal.

Amazon Performance Metric: SOR (Stuck Order Rate)
Amazon will be tracking the site's performance on Stuck order, through the SOR metric.
- SOR = (Total stuck shipments)/(Total weekly units shipped)
- SOR Performance Threshold is 1%. Any site having SOR of more than 1% or more than 35 stuck shipments (whichever is lower)will lead to site deactivation.
Why do the sellers need to update dimensions(length, width, height, and weight) in Amazon portal listings?
The dimensions uploaded by sellers in listings data are used by Amazon to create and recommend the package dimensions(using backend algorithms).
The same package dimensions are fetched by Assure from Amazon.
During packing, we send the dimensions back to Amazon as Amazon doesn’t allow us to pack orders without package dimensions.
There should be no empty or incorrect values in any of these 4 parameters. Otherwise, sellers can face issues while packing the orders. Hence, The seller should update all listings with the correct dimensions (length, width, height, and weight).
How to address Packing Issues because of incorrect/empty?
This happens usually when the recommended packages field has some dimensions missing (length, width, height or weight). Check if all the dimensions are uploaded in the Amazon panel, if not upload the same and then retry packing. Also, check for the correctness of the dimensions.
If the issue still persists, please raise the issue to assure.support@increff.com
Our support team will share the logs with the Amazon team and provide you with the correct dimensions to be updated while packing.
Once the recommended dimensions are received, you can enable 'Capture Packet Dimensions' in Packing screen configurations and input the dimensions while packing.

Mechanism to identify SmartConnect orders from Seller central
Currently, there is no mechanism to identify SmartConnect Orders from Seller Central (Manage Orders) page. There are FBA reports available in Report drop-down on seller central where users can refer to AFS reports which have the warehouse id which can be used to identify SmartConnect Orders.
Reports à Fulfilled by Amazon à Amazon Fulfilled Shipments Report
*But this will capture only fulfilled orders.
*Amazon SmartConnect program team shares reports with the Integrator as well as selling partners in case orders are pending processing. You can refer to those reports to identify pending orders.
