Checking buy box eligibility on the new Manage All Inventory page

Selling on Amazon Buybox

The old Manage All Inventory page had a column clearly and uniquely devoted to buy box eligibility. The new one does not seem to have it.
There is a checkbox labeled ‘featured offer eligibility’ under the display preferences, but it does not do what its label indicates. When it is checked, all that is displayed is the buy box price, and nothing about eligibility.

Am I missing something? When using the new Manage All Inventory page, is there any quick, reliable way to determine if one’s stock is buy box eligible?

I don’t see it either and posted about it a bit ago.

FEW of the extra columns are showing up in the NMI that I can see.

ETA - I can only see it by switching back to the old version.

Me too. But the old version will disappear soon.

Same here - and for many others, it seems, from what I’ve seen reported over in the NSFE and related discussion venues.

The “Import Prior Preferences” functionality does not appear to be working correctly - or @ least not in the way that is implied.

As the scheduled deprecation date of the prior version of the MYI Dashboard was delayed from the original cutoff of 073124 until 082924, I’m hopeful that this is still a work in progress.

Still, I won’t be holding my breath on that expectation…

Over at the FUFE, there is a thread devoted to the new page and its numerous shortcomings.

Perhaps a few more comments and/or upvotes in that thread might draw sufficient attention.

Possibly, but given the responses from @MattC_Manage_All_Inv (link, NSFE Profile) - a “Principal Product Manager” - in the 041824 “Ask Amazon” event “Get answers about the new Manage All Inventory BETA tool at an Ask Amazon event on April 18th” (link, NSFE), and the lack of follow-up thereafter (n.b. Jameson’s final reply), I’m not sure that Amazon’s mind isn’t already made up.

A telling reply on that score is Matt C’s reply to that discussion here (bolded emphasis mine):

Also no column for eligibility, but mine has a small green check mark when lowest price (as per old page) but an annoying red x if it is not the lowest. Then the Amazon primo tech flies in with some of them saying “featured offer” with a green checkmark. Not only is it NOT the featured offer, it’s not the lowest price.

Yep, I’m seeing the same, dadgummit.

Didn't nail it

I recommend getting involved in the FUFE. Someone apears to be reading the sellers’ complaints and fixing things.

In particular, a seller noted that “…the column headers aren’t frozen, so they disappear as you scroll down…”

That was about three hours ago. Now the scrolling issue is fixed.

Next week’s proposed “Ask Amazon” Event would seem likely to get…interesting:

I will do that, to be sure; in the meantime, I’m keeping a close eye peeled on the Ask Amazon Schedule (link, NSFE) discussion.

The Ask Amazon event on the new MYI Dashboard has currently been scheduled to take place next Tuesday, 27Aug`24; Michelle just posted this notice over in the Listings Lounge sub-forum:

Michelle’s FMT-CMT colleague Jameson has created a ‘triage’ page for this upcoming event:

https://sellercentral.amazon.com/seller-forums/discussions/t/fa4a2f8d-b722-4a9d-a005-714fbd27cb9b

It remains to be seen whether the event will be hosted directly from that URL - Amazon has not been entirely consistent, in that regard, more than a few times in the past…

The new Manage All Inventory page isn’t perfect, but in general I do think it is an improvement. Shockingly.

I’m half convinced it will spontaneously set all my FBM inventory to 1010101 pcs, or set all my prices to $4, or… I dunno… explode…

For me, it’s a step backwards. If they’re going to clutter the page with more useless blather, at least give me the option to filter out the extraneous junk.

Have you tried the Preference button?

You should be able to do exactly that.

Amazon changed this. The checkbox now just says ‘featured offer’. Amazon has removed the ability to determine if your inventory is eligible for the featured offer. So now, some bot can remove your featured offer eligibility, and you won’t even know it.
