Not a big fan of the new Manage inventory page
Trying to navigate the new inventory page and with selecting FBM books to FBA that are inactive and send to Amazon is not giving me that option like the old page did. Anyone else having this annoyance?

There are going to be a LOT of threads about this. There are so MANY annoyances.

I really do not like the new look. The way too busy, vertical look that has every little detail versus the old horizontal look that I can quickly see inbound, avail, unfulfilled, reserved, price, business price is such a downgrade. Another UX change that was designed by non-users.

The old webpage is very easy to use, not sure why amazon IT guys always change to a weird design ? It is very annoying. IT guys should be laid off to a minimum staff level.

Rather than fixing broken API - they give us this "upgrade" 🤡

Yesterday, Monday the "new" manage inventory page wasn't even working. Switched to the old one which still worked.
It is ridiculous now how hard it is to get to option to EDIT a SKU. And repricing is unwieldy. Etc.

I don't use FBA, so I am slightly off topic, but my complaint is generally within the topic of shortcomings of the new manage inventory page. IMHO, this is an important topic.
On the old manage inventory page, there is/was a column to tell you if an ASIN is eligible for the buy box AKA 'featured offer' . It worked.
The new page does not have such a column. Under preferences. there is a box so you can choose to display an eligibility column. But it does not work.
( It is appalling that a seller should regard this column as being important, but since someone or something is changing featured offer eligibilities with no notice, a FOE column is important. )

Oh no. Bad enough the "improvements" they made to the send to Amazon process that slowed everything down and for no reason eliminated the option to just indicate you are sending one of each inventory item (an almost inevitable choice for those of us selling used books). I haven't spent much time on the new manage inventory page but it looked to me like you can't just organize your inventory from most to least expensive or oldest to most recently listed, both invaluable to my own manage inventory process.

Yourself, myself, and somewhat less then 1 million others all agree.
Honestly though my expereince with the 'new' was limited to only how long it took me to click the "Use Original version" button

I have to believe the systematic removal of every single function or page that worked well and was convenient is part of the plan to get rid of 3P sellers. Those that cannot be discouraged away will at least be hobbled and distracted with tasks that used to be easy and fast and now take 3 times longer with the "improved" pages.

No one wants it and apparently no one requested the confusing, cluttered and inefficient new design.
But you can be sure we will be forced to use it at the upcoming new deadline.
