Don’t just outsource disputing shortages with Amazon. Ensure you address their root cause instead.
It’s what sets profitable vendors apart from their peers.
Raising disputes won’t resolve:
- Late or Rejected Shipments
- Missing Invoices on Overages
- Duplicate Invoices
- Invoiced Products not on PO
- ASIN Mismatches
- Purchase Price Variances
- Incorrectly Received Products
The problem is:
Ignoring the underlying cause of process misalignments turns the resulting charges into a permanent cost of doing business with Amazon.
The better way?
Review the root causes of unpaid invoices by going to Vendor Central » Payments » Financial Scorecard
Amazon even offers dedicated training and whitepapers to help you identify and address the root causes of these financial errors.
Bonus tip: Make any outstanding shortage settlements part of your upcoming vendor negotiation.
