How to Remove Variations

Are we capable of removing a listing from a group variation? I've read that there was an issue prior and curious if it has arose again. I've searched for the parent variation under manage inventory and tried to edit it by going to the next screen after clicking edit. Displays my variations with the check boxes to the left but when I mark them, I'm not given the option to delete variation.

I repeated the process but searched one of the variations instead. Same result.

I tried that again but clicked edit variation family along the bottom of the listing on the Manage Inventory screen. Same results

I tried both the parent listing and child listing under the drop down when you click on the parent variation in the manage inventory screen. Clicked the check box then delete listing. Resulted in me deleting the parent variation and children became unattached. I suppose that "works" but not ideal with several variations. When I tried that with a child variation the actual listing was deleted rather than removed from the family variation.

Trying not to use the Variation Wizard and wondering if there is a way to remove child ASINs from a Variation Family without removing the group as a whole or having to actually delete my listing.

Anyone able to offer some advice on how to approach this WITHOUT using the Variation Wizard? I believe Amazon just updated the variation group selection, "Stye,Size,Unit Count, etc" and curious if that may have caused an issue with REMOVING variations. Not deleting.

Any advice from others or a MOD would be highly appreciated as this has been an ongoing issue for a few weeks now. There is nothing online on how to remove variations from a Variation Family. Amazon does a decent job on how to DO things but not UNDO them. If this could be a concept moving forward it could help solve many sellers issues.

Good Evening @Seller_NI0dEZUBdT9dt,

I wanted to stop by and see if you still required assistance with your variation question?

First, have you by chance reached out to Selling Partner Support regarding this issue? They should be able to provide you with steps and best practices when it comes to removing variations. Please share the CASE ID you have with support if you did reach out.

If you have not yet, please reach out to them providing this much level of detail like you have above and some more information such as:

  • ASINs you are trying to remove the variation for
  • Steps you have taken to remove the child ASINs
  • Any batch IDs if you have tried the removals via using feeds/templates
  • Screenshots of any error messages you might be running into
  • Any additional information that might help the support team with their investigation

Feel free to post the CASE ID in this discussion once you have contacted support so we can follow the case along to the conclusion. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Hope you have a great rest of the week.

Sincerely, Cooper_Amazon
