Through the Amazon MFN (Amazon Fulfillment Network) transfer plug-in you can forward orders from Xentral to Amazon so that they can be shipped via the Amazon Merchant Fulfillment Network (MFN). Amazon can thus also be used as a shipping service provider for non-Amazon orders. The transfer is based on delivery notes.
To use MFN you need the Transfers module and your Amazon interface must be set up correctly. Otherwise you cannot send delivery notes to MFN.
Define the relevant settings in the Transfers module. In the Transfer format field in the Communication section select AmazonMfn from the drop-down :
In order for Xentral to know which Amazon seller account is connected for using MFN, you must link the relevant Amazon shop. If you have more than one Amazon seller account, select the one you want to use for Amazon fulfillment in the Amazon Shop field in the Übertragungsspezifische Einstellungen (Transfer specific settings) section.
The feedback from Amazon is picked up by the Amazon and API transfer process starters. Make sure the relevant process starters are activated, as no transfers are carried out otherwise.
Customs values are automatically transferred for export shipments. These are taken directly from the delivery notes. If no customs values are stored in the delivery note, values from the order are used.
You can only transfer orders with products listed on Amazon with enough stock available.
