The Challenge

The Disconnected Amazon Ecosystem: Why Manual Processes Fail

Managing your Amazon presence across both its sales channel (Marketplace) and logistics arm (Fulfillment) often leads to a fragmented, error-prone, and labor-intensive operation. Without a robust integration, businesses struggle to keep pace with Amazon's dynamic environment, hindering growth and profitability.

  • Manual data entry for orders, inventory, and shipments.
  • Delayed or inaccurate inventory updates leading to overselling or stockouts.
  • Complex financial settlement reports requiring tedious manual reconciliation.
  • Lack of real-time visibility into order status and fulfillment progress.
  • Inconsistent product listings and pricing across channels.
  • Inefficient handling of customer returns and refunds.

Technical Integration Details: Powering Your Amazon Ecosystem

Our iPaaS provides the robust technical framework for a seamless and high-performing integration between Amazon Fulfillment and Amazon Marketplace. We leverage Amazon's native APIs, implement best practices, and provide advanced features for data integrity and scalability.

Data Flow Steps

API Connection & Authentication: Establish secure connections to both Amazon Fulfillment and Amazon Marketplace using OAuth 2.0 (LWA) and SP-API credentials, managed securely within the iPaaS.

Event Listener Configuration: Configure SP-API Notifications (webhooks) for real-time events (new orders, status changes) and scheduled triggers for batch processes (reports, full inventory syncs).

Data Mapping & Transformation: Design visual data maps to translate entities like `Order`, `Inventory`, and `Product` between Amazon's schemas and your internal canonical models, applying necessary transformations and business rules.

Workflow Orchestration: Build multi-step, conditional workflows to automate end-to-end processes, from order capture to fulfillment, inventory updates, and financial reconciliation.

Error Handling & Monitoring: Implement comprehensive error handling, retry logic, dead-letter queues, and real-time monitoring dashboards to ensure data integrity and proactive issue resolution.

Deployment & Governance: Utilize dev → QA → prod pipelines for controlled deployments, version control for all integration assets, and robust governance features for security and compliance.

Data Touchpoints

Amazon Marketplace: Orders, OrderItems, Listings, Inventory, FinancialEvents, Reports, Notifications.
Amazon Fulfillment: Orders, OrderItems, Shipments, InventoryItem, Product, Returns, PaymentTransaction, Reports.
iPaaS: Acts as the central hub for all data transformations, workflow orchestration, and error management.

"A central iPaaS acts as the orchestrator. Orders originate from Amazon Marketplace, flow through the iPaaS for validation and transformation, then are routed to Amazon Fulfillment (or external ERP/WMS for FBM). Shipment updates from Fulfillment flow back through the iPaaS to update the Marketplace. Inventory levels from Fulfillment are pushed via the iPaaS to update Marketplace listings. Product master data from PIM/ERP flows via the iPaaS to update both Marketplace listings and Fulfillment product details. Financial settlement reports from both Amazon systems are processed by the iPaaS for reconciliation in the accounting system. All data flows are monitored and secured by the iPaaS."

Data Mapping

Key Entities & Intelligent Mapping for Amazon Integrations

Our iPaaS provides pre-built connectors and AI-assisted mapping capabilities for the core entities exchanged between Amazon Fulfillment and Amazon Marketplace. This ensures accurate, consistent data across your entire ecosystem.

Order

Represents a customer's purchase, central to both sales and fulfillment processes.

Amazon Fulfillment Fields

amazonOrderId purchaseDate orderStatus buyerInfo fulfillmentChannel shippingAddress

Amazon Marketplace Fields

amazonOrderId purchaseDate orderStatus fulfillmentChannel shippingAddress orderTotal

Mapping Notes

The `amazonOrderId` is the unique identifier. `orderStatus` requires careful bidirectional mapping to ensure consistency. `fulfillmentChannel` (FBA/FBM) dictates subsequent workflow logic. `orderTotal` from Marketplace is crucial for financial reconciliation, while Fulfillment provides status updates.

End-to-End Amazon Order Fulfillment (FBA/FBM)

Automate the journey of an order from its creation on Amazon Marketplace to its successful fulfillment via Amazon Fulfillment or your FBM operations, and finally, updating the Marketplace with shipment details.

Integration Steps:

  1. 0 New order captured from Amazon Marketplace (SP-API /notifications/v1/subscriptions).
  2. 1 iPaaS validates order data and transforms for internal systems.
  3. 2 If FBA, iPaaS triggers fulfillment request in Amazon Fulfillment (/fba/outbound/2020-07-01/fulfillments).
  4. 3 If FBM, iPaaS sends order to ERP/WMS for processing.
  5. 4 Shipment details (tracking, carrier) received from Fulfillment/ERP.
  6. 5 iPaaS updates order status and tracking info on Amazon Marketplace (/orders/v0/orders).

Business Outcome

Faster order processing, reduced manual errors, accurate tracking for customers, improved seller metrics.

Technical Documentation

API Endpoints & Data Logic

Technical details for developers and architects.

Method Endpoint Purpose
GET /orders/v0/orders Retrieve Fulfillment orders for status updates and processing.
POST /fba/outbound/2020-07-01/fulfillments Request FBA outbound shipments.
GET /fba/inventory/v1/summaries Get detailed FBA inventory levels.
POST /reports/2021-06-30/reports Request various Fulfillment reports (e.g., inventory, settlement).
PUT /listings/2021-08-01/items/{sellerId}/{sku} Update product listings related to Fulfillment (e.g., FBA availability).

Transformation Logic

  • Standardize all date/time formats to ISO 8601.
  • Map Amazon-specific `currency` codes to internal accounting standards.
  • Aggregate multiple `FinancialEvent` lines into single, logical transactions for GL posting.
  • Apply tax calculation logic based on `shippingAddress` and `itemPrice`.
  • Enrich `Product` data with internal attributes before pushing to Amazon.
  • Normalize `carrierCode` values for consistent tracking updates.

🛡️ Error Handling

  • Amazon SP-API returns an authentication error, requiring token refresh.
  • A `Product` update fails due to invalid attributes (e.g., incorrect `category`).
  • A `Shipment` update to Marketplace fails because the `amazonOrderId` is not found.
  • Financial report parsing fails due to unexpected format changes from Amazon.
  • Concurrent `Inventory` updates from Fulfillment and a manual adjustment cause a data conflict.
