Inventory Ledger Report Explained

What the FBA Ledger Report shows and what each column means.

The Inventory Ledger report works like a bank statement for your Amazon inventory. It helps you reconcile your inventory, showing your starting balance, received inventory, customer orders, returns, adjustments, removals and ending balance for your Amazon accounts.

Go to Reports, click Inventory, then click FBA Ledger Report.

How is it different from the FBA Restock Report?

  1. The Inventory Ledger report doesn't include inbound shipments to Amazon.

  2. It's only available once the day is over. You can't run it for the current day.

  3. It's also available for marketplaces outside the US, like the UK and Germany.

  4. It's usually more accurate because it reconciles your inventory.

Default columns

  • Total: The ending balance of sellable inventory in Amazon warehouses, plus the inventory moving between Amazon fulfillment centers.

  • Sellable: The ending balance of sellable inventory in FBA warehouses.

  • In Transit Between Warehouses: Units moving between Amazon fulfillment centers right now.

  • Asset Value: The value of your inventory held by Amazon. Asset Value = Total × item cost.
