Tips for using the FBA Fulfilled Shipments Report

The FBA Fulfilled Shipments Report from the Reports API section contains detailed order, shipment, and item information for Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) shipments. Here are some best practices for using this report:

  • Do not request the report more frequently than once every 24 hours. This report is refreshed once every 24 hours, so requesting it more often than that provides no new information and counts against your overall Amazon Marketplace Web Service throttling limit.
  • Request successive reports with some overlap. To avoid missing shipments in automated implementations, you should incorporate some overlap in the time frame of successive reports. For example, you could request a daily report for the previous three days.
  • Use the ShipmentItemId to disambiguate duplicate shipment reports. Use the ShipmentItemId (not the OrderId or the OrderItemId) to disambiguate duplicate shipments from overlapping reporting time frames.
