I am listing a product in generic with no product id so when I try submitting my listing a message comes up ‘gtin exemption required, apply now’. I click on that and it takes me to another page which is blank, hence I cannot apply. When I check selling applications, it shows gtin exemption and says its approved. Makes no sense to me, as that message to apply for gtin exemption is there no matter what. I am so stuck.

Hi, Can anyone offer any advice on the following; I am creating a new product and am a little confused on the 'Target Gender' option.

If I sell a baby shower game that is for a mother to be expecting a boy, would the target gender be 'Boy' as Mum to be is shopping for a blue baby boy themed item or would it be Woman as I am targeting women to buy this?

I asked an Amazon specialist but he was confused and told me to leave it but I am curious as to anyone elses advice if possible?

TIA :)

I would target it as Woman because that is the gender who will be using the baby shower game.

I would only target it as Boy if the game was for a Boy.

I have always believed that gender target is the person who the item is intended for.

Hello,

I find it extremely concerning that if as a seller, I'm not meeting the target rate of below 5% for uploading an invoice within 24 hours of a customer payment, I am at risk of deactivation.

If this is such a sensitive metric that can lead to de-activation of an account, why isn't there a notification alert from Amazon requesting sellers to upload the invoice within 24 hours of the payment being made with the order I.D for said invoice each time? We get an email alert to respond to buyers messages within 24 hours of the buyer message for instance.

As sellers, we have a host of duties to perform. Do they expect us to check the orders page every few hours to ensure this mundane task is promptly met within a very narrow timeframe each time? This is extremely unreasonable in my humble opinion. I would like to adhere to this, however, life gets in the way, and without notification prompts, this is very difficult to adhere to ALL OF THE TIME.

Is there a way to receive an alert from Amazon each time an order is placed requiring an invoice to be uploaded?

I have auto invoices set up for all the countries where I have VAT registration, but occasionally, you get orders from other EU countries that do not have VAT registration, thus making this task difficult to adhere to without fail.

You've probably left the 'List Price' field blank. Put the MSRP in here.

@Seller_XUNeUuvrQDpgP Thank you very much for your help. I found the notifications. I have done the video call, sorted the Mexico/US account and managed to get my UK account unlocked. To save me starting a new post, I was wondering if you would be able to assist with my next problem.

My UK account is now at risk of deactivation because I lost an A-Z appeal. I don't sell in large volumes, so only 1 problem has taken me over the 1% target. My buyer didn't receive their order, but I received no communication (until the A-z email). The courier lost my parcel, which I believe is an issue out of my control so I appealed, but the appeal failed because Amazon believe that the Yodel tracking number is invalid, but it is the correct tracking number. I have 100% valid tracking rate (plus the tracking number works on the Yodel website). Are you able to help me to re-appeal? Thank you.

Amazon buy shipping doesn't insert any barcode number automatically,it is left blank,

the only way to get is by taking a note of it yourself from the printed postage label before you post it ,or as Brain says above,the proof of postage the post office provide you with once you hand it over their counter,

Or indeed if you haven't kept a note of it and there is a later complaint of non delivery and you want to check the barcode you can do a reprint of the amazon label to check it (assuming it's not too long ago and is still available for reprinting)

Yes Brian,you're correct,

if you're buying signed for amazon buy shipping will insert the tracking number automatically,

but they don't insert the barcode for standard large letters or parcels,even though the packages do (or should have) a confirmation of delivery scan,

instead they leave it blank & inform the customer it's 'running late'

When you say you have added to SFP Catalogue - what exactly do you mean?

Do you mean you have assigned the specific 'Nationwide Prime' Shipping Template to those items?

Do you then use Buy Shipping to get your labels via an approved carrier? And are you using correct service (Tracked24 if using Royal Mail for example)

Are you shipping on-time (same day for orders before 4pm)? (This is different from delivered target being on-time)

Have you chosen which weekend day you will ship? (you must ship on either a saturday or sunday)

If still struggling perhaps upload a screenshot of your 'General Shipping Settings' and one of your 'Nationwide Prime' template
