Help with FBA small and light please (changing from FBA)
I have been using FBA for some time and are currently looking at Small and Light. I notice that some of the items I have in FBA would now qualify for small and light (obviously saving me some money).
Does anybody know if
- items can be transferred from FBA to Small and Light
- if not can a new barcode be used for small and light (for the same product in FBA) so that I can just run the FBA stock down
- or alternatively any suggestions on the best way to proceed
Many thanks, Gill

Hi Gill,
To move to S&L, you just enroll the products into the small and light programme. As long as the product qualifies.

No need to move stock in and out or change any details

Hi Gill - your units will still be FBA (there’s no transfer that takes place) - but qualifying units will be shipped at a reduced fee.
All the best

Thank you everybody for your input. (I managed to load this question and was then called away - hence my delay in getting back to you). Small and light here I come!

I sometimes enroll & disenroll products quite often and nothing changes (apart from the fee’s of course).
It’s a really easy system now with the quick enroll, and also being able to make bulk changes.

Are you allowed to have a regular fba and fba small and light inventory for the same item?

Thank you The_Little_Shop - that makes sense, I can now look at this in a new light as it now makes sense to have the same item in FBA and S&L. Some time ago I did try S&L but because then you just put one bar code on the outside I found Amazon were sending out the wrong items. Time to give it a go again now that each item is barcoded.

I think I must be missing the obvious here but I have been going round in circles for a while. I have enrolled 3 items into Small and Light and they have been accepted. They have appeared on my FBA Inventory. According to seller university when I go to replenish stock I should get an option for FBA or small and light. This is not happening and the system just wants to send ordinary FBA. What am I missing?

Yes I see what you mean. I was certainly missing the obvious. I have just had another look and spotted that the fees they will be charging are the small and light fees. Thank you for your help.
