The FBA Warehouses page links Amazon's ship from names to your ConnectStock warehouses, so new FBA shipments get the right source warehouse on their own.
How it works
Every FBA shipment has a ship from name: the name of the place you sent it from. Amazon's name is often different from your warehouse name in ConnectStock, so you link the two once.
Example: Amazon calls your 3PL "ShipFast Logistics LLC", and in ConnectStock it's "West Coast 3PL". You link them on this page. Every new shipment from ShipFast Logistics LLC then comes out of West Coast 3PL.
Before you start, turn on "Auto-Set Warehouse from Amazon Ship-From" in your inventory file. See How to Change the Source Warehouse for FBA Shipments in ConnectStock.
Link a name to a warehouse
To link a name:
Go to ConnectStock, then Lists, and open the FBA Warehouses tab. Names that aren't linked yet show "Map Warehouse".
Click the name.
Under ConnectStock Warehouse, pick the warehouse.
Click Save.
You can link several names to the same warehouse.
Add a name before your first shipment
To add a name Amazon hasn't sent yet:
On the FBA Warehouses tab, click Add Ship-From Name.
Type the name the way it shows in Amazon, then click Create.
Click the new name, pick its warehouse and click Save.
Things to know
Links only apply to new shipments. Shipments already in ConnectStock keep their warehouse.
If a name isn't linked, ConnectStock uses a warehouse with exactly the same name. If there's none, the shipment comes out of the store's Local Warehouse. If FBA Shipment Source Warehouse (the upper switch) is on, it shows Missing Warehouse on FBA Shipments instead, and its stock isn't moved until you pick one.
Upper and lower case don't matter. "east coast" and "East Coast" are the same name.
If a linked warehouse is no longer active, the warehouse name under it shows in red, and new shipments go back to matching by name.
This works for Amazon FBA shipments only, not Walmart WFS.
Frequently asked questions
I don't see the FBA Warehouses tab.
It shows only when "Auto-Set Warehouse from Amazon Ship-From" is on for your inventory file and your user has the Warehouses permission.
I changed a link. Why didn't my older shipments change?
Links are only used when a shipment first comes in. To fix an older shipment, go to FBA Shipments, click the 3 dots on it, choose "Set Source Warehouse", pick the warehouse and click Save.
How do I remove a link?
Click the name, click Remove, then confirm. A name you added goes away. A name from your shipments stays on the list with no warehouse.
