Notice to Ship on Amazon Order Page Missing

If you ship Amazon FMB, don’t rely on the Order Status column little red warning that an order needs to be shipped and the tracking entered. The notice is missing currently. The sort by Ship by Today tab isn’t sorting correctly either. Both have also been reported on NSFE.

This and the fact that we had an order at 11:58pm PDT on Tuesday show up with a last Ship by Date of Friday (2 day handle time) means that Amazon is playing around with the time parameters with orders.

If you are FBM, be careful as this has the potential of messing everyone’s shipping metrics up.

Ours seems to be working as per usual today, but I am overly vigilant on shipping/dates.

Do you have AHT and SSA enabled?

Are you viewing through the regular Seller Central order page or are you using the new Next Gen Selling order page?

Ours was normal yesterday when we replied on NSFE to a post alerting of it and then today our order page was missing which orders needed to be shipped today.

With listing handle time set to 1 day, then Thursday Aug 21 ship by date would be normal. However, your image does show that you are also missing the notice under the red Unshipped in the Order Status column that would alert you to ship the item today.

It seems like they could write code to accommodate our time zones instead of forcing pdt on us all, so we have a full day where we are. I hate the morning surprises, especially on Free Shipping which should have it’s own handling time setting.
I don’t want much, do I? :laughing:

Same here. I noticed the warnings were gone Wednesday morning. I had three orders that had to ship Wednesday, and the normal warnings were not there. The warnings were there in the wee hours overnight between Tuesday and Wednesday, however (I am a night owl and had taken note of them).
