• Professional sellers can also cancel multiple orders by uploading an Order Cancellation file. See Cancelling Multiple Orders.

Note: We expect sellers to maintain accurate inventory levels. Failure to adjust your inventory in a timely manner can lead to excessive pre-fulfilment order cancellations. For information on how we factor cancelled orders into your overall performance, see Customer Metrics.

Partial refunds

Occasionally, you may need to cancel an part of an order with multiple items and refund the items that are cancelled. If you manage your orders using inventory files, you can upload an Order Adjustment Feed.

To cancel or refund part of a multi-item order, follow these steps:

1. Ship and confirm all the order items that you can fulfil.
2. Use an Order Adjustment Feed to submit a refund for the order items that you cannot fulfil. Provide the following information in the feed:
3. Quantity Cancelled: The quantity that cannot be fulfilled.
4. Adjustment Reason: The refund code. Select either "NoInventory" or "CustomerCancel."
