Hello, @idaso888 - welcome to the SAS Forum!

May I ask which west coast warehouse destination was assigned by your FBA Inbound Shipment workflow?

Usually when I was doing partial shipments, I have seen the following options: LGB8, LAS1, VGT2, GYR2, GYR3, LAX9 (very rarely) SBD1 and SCK4.

Now, the only option are central or east coast.

At first blush, I suspect you’re being troubled by what I alluded to in this 091724 SAS post:

Delivery Disruption Emails - FBA

BNA6 is an IXD (“Inbound Cross Dock”) facility, similar in function to RDU4, LAX9, RYY2, PBI3, LBE1, LGB8, etc. Basically, an IXD performs the functions which were formerly segregated between SCs (“Sorting Centers”) & DCs (“Distribution Centers”).

Welcome!
We currently have the option to ship to the West (both partial and minimal splits).
This LTL shipment I am working on right now is being split between ONT8, SBD1, and LGB8, whether we’re shipping from the West or the East.

If you check again later, maybe tonight, you might see different options. I understand your schedule might be tight, though.

Thank you guys for responding. We just bite the bullet and went with partial shipment. Using the UI to create inbound shipment is sometimes a bit janky and we decided it’s not worth the wait since we are coming close to the October deadline (I forgot exactly which day but mid Oct when Amazon no longer guarantees BFCM shipment)
