Suggestion for the new "Manage All Inventory" page
Although I hate the new manage all inventory page, I have to try it since the old version seemed will be replaced soon. But I do have a suggestion, I hope Amazon can consider it before forcing me to use the new one.
As a seller, I have 20-30 product listings, but each of them have 40-100 variations. As the new design is listing each variation separated, it's a tough job to find variations from one particular product listing.
My suggestion is: in the "Manage All Inventory" page, only list the ONE most popular variation from EACH PRODUCT LISTING. If one want to see more variations, one can click the "Variation Family Detail" button in that variation. This will make a clean short page, and save us from looking for the particular product from the tons of variations of the same product.
@Dominic_Amazon, @Jameson_Amazon, I hope you can forward my suggestions to proper people who can make decisions. I also hope Amazon can do enough usability test before making such big changes. Thanks,

See you there!

Goal for new page is to slow down sellers making it more difficult so you waste more time dealing with random sheet than selling items. New page is horrible by design!

Can I make another suggestion?
I have 200+ SKUs and I'm not able to use the CTRL-F (on Firefox or Chrome) to search for a single SKU. I know I can type in an individual SKU in the search box, but one of the benefits of using the CTRL-F is that I review neighboring SKUs as well. If you only review 1 SKU at a time you miss the quick review of all the other SKUs that you need to manage.
Because I'm not able to use the CTRL-F, I'm afraid that I won't be able to manage every SKU with a quick glance and I'll miss something.
I've had to hit Page Down 7 times to look for the SKU that I'm interested in. Previously I was able to type CTRL-F and go instantly to the SKU I wanted, plus review all the other SKUs around it.
Thanks, hoping someone can take this into consideration.

In fairness they have made several updates including the addition of a way to change the default on the "sort by" function which was a obvious defect. When the new page was rolled out the fixed default was to sort your entire active and inactive inventory by latest sold.
Based on the feedback we received, we have made a few updates to this experience. You can now:
Add/edit your min and max price for a product, without additional click, under the 'Price and shipping cost' column.
Find your product variations as a single expandable group among the list of your products.
Search for multiple products at once by inputting their SKUs separated by ',' in search box and choosing SKUs option in the Search dropdown.
See default sort that is modified to match previous experience - by 'Date Created: New to Old'. You can change this sort order under 'Sort by' or by adjusting the default sort in preferences.
