What if I have single and bundles of the same item?

The FNSKU mapping and FNSKU printing from shipment plan recognize when a unique UPC is linked to multiple FNSKUs. When a UPC is scanned, the system will ask which FNSKU labels are needed if more then one option is found.

What if the UPCs Amazon has are different from the UPCs on the actual items?

We have functionality that allows you to map accross UPCs/FNSKUs. By mapping the wrong UPC to the correct ones, every time you scan the product the system will match it with the UPC Amazon has.

What if I need other FNSKU printing options/functionality?
