Amazon AWD Inventory, Visible at Last

Most inventory tools stop at FBA — and miss everything sitting in AWD. Connect Seller Central and your AI agent sees AWD warehouse counts, inbound shipments, and AWD→FBA replenishment orders, so total on-hand and reorder dates reflect what you actually own.

AWD + FBA Totals Shipment Tracking Replenishment Blockers
AI Chat — AWD + FBA
You: Do I need to reorder the trail runner line? FBA says I'm low.
MAP: FBA shows 240 units (~12 days), but you also have 1,860 units in AWD — 1,500 available to distribute and 360 already in transit to FBA. True on-hand is ~2,100 units, about 9 weeks of cover. No reorder needed yet.
You: Then why is FBA running low?
MAP: One replenishment order is blocked: two SKUs failed validation for missing prep. Fix the prep settings and AWD will resume auto-replenishing to FBA.

The AWD Blind Spot

AWD is Amazon's upstream bulk-storage network — cheaper storage that auto-replenishes FBA. But because it lives behind a separate API, most tools simply don't count it. That breaks three things:

Understated On-Hand Counts

If a tool only sees FBA, every total it shows you is wrong by exactly your AWD position. Reorder math built on that number over-orders.

Phantom Stockout Alarms

FBA-only days-of-supply screams "reorder now" while 2,000 units sit in AWD ready to replenish. You expedite POs you didn't need.

Invisible Replenishment Failures

When an AWD→FBA replenishment order silently fails validation, FBA stocks out while AWD stock sits idle — and nothing tells you why.

Three Live AWD Views

Pulled live from Amazon's AWD API — no report delays, no stale snapshots.

Warehouse Inventory

Per-SKU AWD on-hand, inbound to AWD, available and reserved distributable quantities, units in transit to FBA, and upcoming expirations.

Try asking: "For each SKU, show total on-hand including AWD warehouse inventory alongside FBA."

Inbound Shipments

Every shipment headed to AWD with status and timestamps — plus per-shipment detail: tracking number, carrier, and expected vs received units per SKU.

Try asking: "Which of my AWD inbound shipments have been stuck in transit the longest?"

Replenishment Orders

AWD→FBA replenishment status, requested vs shipped units, and the specific blocker when a SKU isn't replenishing — the hidden cause of FBA stockouts.

Try asking: "Are any AWD replenishment orders blocked, and why?"

Frequently Asked Questions

AWD (Amazon Warehousing & Distribution) is Amazon's upstream bulk-storage network — separate from FBA fulfillment centers. FBA inventory reports only count units in FBA, so sellers using AWD routinely understate their true on-hand position. Marketplace Ad Pros pulls AWD counts live from Amazon's AWD API and the AI adds them to FBA quantities for true totals.

Three live views: per-SKU AWD warehouse inventory (on-hand, inbound, available and reserved distributable, units in transit to FBA), inbound shipments to AWD (status, tracking, carrier, per-SKU expected vs received), and AWD-to-FBA replenishment orders (status, requested vs shipped units, and the specific reason a SKU isn't replenishing).

Yes. Replenishment orders include Amazon's distribution-ineligibility reasons per SKU — prep problems, validation failures, and other blockers. This is a common hidden cause of FBA stockouts while AWD stock sits idle, and it's surfaced directly in the AI's answer.

When you connect (or reconnect) an MCP client like Claude or ChatGPT, check the "Read AWD Warehousing" permission on the authorization screen. The option appears when your account has a Seller Central integration. The in-app AI chat has AWD access automatically — no extra permission needed.

Nothing breaks. If your seller account isn't onboarded to AWD, the AI says so plainly and continues with FBA-only analysis. Vendor Central accounts don't have AWD — the tools apply to Seller Central accounts.
