When you're ready to send inventory to Amazon, you begin by creating a shipping plan. A shipping plan specifies the following:
-
Products you want to send to Amazon
-
Quantity of each product
-
Shipping method and carrier details
-
Whether or not you want to prepare and label your inventory yourself or have Amazon do it
Create your shipping plan
On this page, you can find information on the prerequisite step to creating your shipping plan, selecting the products to send to Amazon.

Confirm the packing type of the products you are shipping to Amazon. Individual products are single products of varying quantities and conditions. Case-packed products are multiples of the same product packaged by the manufacturer, where each case contains the same quantity in the same condition.
