Batches
Create
This option will allow you to create a "batch" where you will list your Amazon inventory. You can create FBA shipments here or list your items as Merchant-Fulfilled (MF). See "How To Create Your First Batch" for additional information.
History
The History menu will show you all in-progress and completed batches that were created in Go2Lister. If you start working on a batch and need to return to finish it later, this is where you can find it and resume work. The History menu is also helpful for reviewing completed batches.
Settings
Batch Settings allow you to create a default "shipping from" address, default item conditions, custom SKUs, and product sources. This is also where you can customize your pricing rules and indicators. Finally, you can choose whether you want to print labels automatically with a label printer or print 30-up labels using a standard inkjet/Laserjet printer. See Settings for a detailed breakdown of these settings.
Reports
Sales
You can track your daily sales and historical sales by simply checking the sales data and the displayed graph. You can view historical data by changing the timeframe in the Dropdown at the top right of the Sales report page. This report can be downloaded/exported for additional customization by clicking Download.
Orders
This report displays all orders and related information (like profit!) within a given timeframe. As with the Sales report, you can adjust the timeframe at the top right of the Orders report page. Furthermore, you can view All orders, FBA sales only, or MF sales only by selecting from the tabs at the top of the page. This report can be downloaded/exported for additional customization by clicking Download.
Profit
In this section, you can track your total sales and profit up in a given timeframe, up to the last 12 months. This report tracks your total sales, cost of goods (COGs), total fees, and total gross profit. This report can be downloaded/exported for additional customization by clicking Download.
Inventory
The Inventory report lists all current and inbound inventory. This report also tracks your total sales value, FBA sales value, MF sales value, and inbound sales value.
Profile
Account
Authorize Go2Lister to access your Amazon Seller Central account, or confirm Go2Lister is successfully connected to your Amazon Seller Central account.
Connection
This is where your billing details can be found and where to confirm your account status is active.
Create A Batch
From the dashboard, click Create in the left hand column.
Select Your Fulfillment Type
Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA)
is a service provided by Amazon that allows sellers to store their products in Amazon's fulfillment centers. Amazon then takes care of storage, packaging, shipping, and customer service for these products.
Merchant Fulfilled (MF)
also known as Fulfilled by Merchant (FBM), is a fulfillment option on Amazon where the seller is responsible for storing, packaging, and shipping their products directly to the customers. Unlike Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA), where Amazon handles these logistics, MF gives the seller full control over the entire fulfillment process.
Batch Name
The batch name can be anything you choose. You can add the invoice, source or date in your batch name for later reference.
Pricing Rule
Match Buy Box
Once you scan and enter your items, your listing price will automatically match the current buy box (also known as featured offer).
Smart Pricing
Is a dynamic pricing strategy that uses algorithms and data analysis to optimize prices in real-time. Parameters include market demand, competitor analysis, customer segmentation, inventory management, and external factors. It aims to maximize revenue by adjusting prices based on these factors. Please check this video to understand more about how it works.
Listed By
Put the name of the person who is currently listing the batch.
Shipping From (FBA Fulfillment Only)
Use the address where your items or shipment will be shipping from. If you've already set your address in Settings you can choose it from the dropdown. Otherwise, click the Add (+) button to enter a new address.
Who Labels (FBA Fulfillment Only)
I want to label my products (recommended)
We highly recommend selecting this option to reduce the fees of your shipment. This option allows you to print the FNSKU labels and stick them on the items you will send to Amazon.
I want to pay Amazon $0.30+ per item to label for me
This option allows you to have Amazon label your items when it arrives at their fulfillment center, but you will have to pay an additional fee for it. Unless you have no access to a printer, it is recommended that you label your own products to protect your profits. This fee adds up fast!
Packing Type
I am packing individual products
This option is for booksellers and other sellers that are selling individual items.
I am packing case packed products
-This option is recommended for wholesalers and sellers sending large quantities of a
single SKU.
-Case packed means that when sending 50 units of 1 SKU, they can be packed in cases (boxes), saving the seller on placement fees. For instance, you can have 50 items of 1 SKU, or 2 cases of 25 units each. When listing the latter example, you would indicate 2 boxes and fill in 25 units for each box. However, keep in mind that Amazon still has the ability to split them per case. For example, in the given scenario, you might receive a shipping plan of 25 units at destination CLT2 and 25 units at destination BER1, both packaged in separate cases. you might receive 25 units at destination CLT2 and 25 units at destination BER1, both packaged in separate cases.

Box Content
I want to use Go2Lister to provide box content
The Box Content feature in Go2Lister allows you to complete the entire packing and shipping process within the Go2Lister ecosystem. The process is much more simplified and automated than it appears in Seller Central, resulting in fewer shipment problems. Using this feature, you will have to scan or enter your items per box to ensure you are packing the items according to Amazon's shipping plan.. Additionally. If you choose this option, you will have the ability to print FBA and shipping labels on the Go2Lister website.
I want to use Seller Central to provide box content
If you select this option, you will have to finish the shipment in Seller Central to print an FBA and shipping label. Additionally, you may be charged additional fees for not providing the box content.
Scan Your Items
Using a barcode scanner, simply scan the barcode of your items with your cursor in the search box. If a barcode scanner is unavailable, feel free to enter the ISBN, UPC, ASIN or the keywords of your items in the search box.
Condition
Choose the appropriate condition for your inventory. Clicking the More button will give you Collectible condition options, which can be used for collectible items (rare books, games, etc.). Be sure to review Amazon's Condition Guidelines for your item category to understand how to accurately grade your items.
Quantity
Enter the exact number of the items you are going to list.
Number of Cases (Case-Packed Only)
This option will only be displayed if you select the option "I am packing case-packed products".
Note: the number in Quantity must be divisible by the number in Number of Cases to prevent encountering the error below.
Source
Enter where the items were sourced from (e.g Goodwill, Walmart.com, etc.).
Buy Cost
Enter your total cost for the item. This is important to calculate your estimated profits (Listing price - buy cost - Amazon fees = estimated profit)
Condition Description
Condition notes are helpful for giving potential customers more information about your item, particularly if it is in used condition. Go2Lister allows you to store condition notes that will be frequently used. Type your description in the text field and click the "Add…" dropdown box to store the note. These can be deleted later in Settings.
Listed by
Put the name of the person who is currently listing the batch. These can be stored for quick selection, and stored names can be removed in Settings.
Auto Print
Enable this toggle button if you want the FNSKU label to automatically print while you scan the items you're going to list. If using the Box Contents feature, you will have the option to auto print your FNSKU labels while packing, which keeps your barcode available for scanning at that step. This option should only be used if you are printing individual labels with a thermal printer.
Note: If you are using Go2Lister's Box Contents feature, you may find it more productive to your workflow to print your FNSKU labels as you scan them in that section.
Print Error Labels
Using this setting, an error label will be printed in place of an FNSKU label when listing to avoid mislabelling.
Allow Restricted Items
If this setting is enabled, restricted items will still be added to your batch. However, you can't submit the batch since there are restricted items.
Use Unique SKUs
This setting will assign a unique SKU to all items scanned, rather than assigning the same SKU to multiple quantities of one item.
Use Manual SKUs
The lister can manually type the desired SKU they want to use. For maximum efficiency, it is recommended to configure your SKU template in Settings. However, this setting is useful if you want to exclude an item from repricing, for example.
Auto Replenishments
This setting will replenish inventory on an existing SKU from your batch history.
Accept Shipments
Once you are finished adding items to your current batch, click Send Batch at the top right of the page. Your inventory will be submitted to Amazon Seller Central to create a shipping plan.
A proposed shipping plan will be shown, detailing any split shipments and displaying the quantity of items to be sent to each warehouse. You can choose to accept this shipment plan or cancel and return to the inventory screen.
Box Content Page
Scan your items and they will automatically be assigned to their designated box. If there are split shipments, Go2Lister will indicate which box the item can be packed in.
If there is no split or all the items can fit in one box, there is an option to "Add All to One Box." If you've already labeled your items, the items can be packed and prepped for shipment. When all items are packed in their designated box, confirm no box exceeds 50 pounds, and click the button "Send Box Content".
For a step-by-step tutorial of how to use the Box Contents feature, check out this video!
Edit Shipment
Once you've accepted a shipment plan, you can only adjust the quantity of each item by:
- Up to 5% of the original amount or
- 6 units, whichever is higher
So, if you have 100 of a particular SKU in your shipment, you can increase or decrease that number by up to 5 units (5%). If you have a smaller quantity, like 20 units, then the maximum change allowed is 6 units.Keep in mind that you cannot add new SKUs to an existing shipment plan.While adding your inventory to a batch, you can add/remove inventory at any time. Once a shipment has been selected, you can only remove inventory as detailed above.To edit your shipment, click the Edit Shipment button in the Box Contents section.

In the popup screen, you can edit the quantity of your items, down to zero if necessary.
When you've made the necessary changes, click Submit to continue the Box Contents workflow.
Box Sizes
Enter the correct weight and dimensions of the boxes. Confirm that no box exceeds 50 pounds per Amazon's FBA shipping guidelines.
Click the "Submit" button when all dimensions have been correctly entered. You can go back to the previous step if you need to make edits.
Printing FBA Labels
The final step in listing your items is purchasing shipping to the designated warehouse(s).
Go2Lister will submit your box contents information to Amazon and provide you with a shipping quote.
Click the button Accept Charges to generate your FBA and shipping labels. Note: these charges will be debited from your Amazon Seller Central account or payment method. Go2Lister does not charge you directly.
If your labels do not pop up automatically, click Reprint Labels and your labels will be downloaded to your browser's download folder.
Address
Users can add and update their default address here when creating a new batch. This will be important for generating accurate shipping quotes when sending shipments to Amazon.
Enter the address you will be shipping items from. This can be your home address, even if you are dropping off to a carrier.
You can choose a default Shipping From address to avoid having to select a Shipping From address upon creating a new batch.
Item Conditions
Users can update their default condition here when listing items. Choose whatever condition you anticipate using the most. Don't worry, this can be changed on a per-item basis while listing!
You can add default condition notes here that you plan to use frequently. These can also be added or customized while listing. Saved condition notes can be deleted by clicking the trash can icon on the right.
SKUs
Users can set their custom SKU on this page by simply enabling the Custom SKU option and selecting the desired tags to be added to the SKU. You can use any combination of the options given. You may find it useful to include List Price, Sales Rank, and List Date for tracking performance in the future. Be sure to include Item Count or Random Number to ensure your SKUs are always unique.
Sources and Listers
On this page, the user can add the default sources (where you acquired your items) and any listers who will be listing inventory. These are useful for tracking performance and tracking down any lister-specific issues in the future.
Pricing Rules
The Pricing Rules gives you the option to set Min/Max price rules, select your default Auto Pricing Rules (Smart Pricing, Match Buy Box), and gives users a peek into the rules that govern the Smart Pricing feature.
You can choose your default pricing rule between Smart Pricing and Match Buy Box. Generally, new sellers who do not have Buy Box/Featured Offer eligibility will see better sales using the Match Buy Box option. Smart Pricing is a powerful tool for maximizing profit by targeting higher prices based on sales velocity.
The Min/Max Price Rules are useful to keep repricing software from selling at a loss or triggering a high pricing error (which deactivates your listing). You can choose None, Percent Rule, or Dollar Rule.
Indicators
Indicators are rules you set to give you an "at-a-glance" view of your item's sales velocity and estimated profit. When listing, you will see green or red dots next to your item's sales rank and estimated profit. The idea is when you see a red dot, you should take a second look and consider if this item will be worth listing. Both the sales rank and profit indicators can be customized here to suit your business.
Printer Settings
Printer Settings allows you to set your default printer and label sizes. Go2Lister supports Rollo and Dymo thermal printers as well as manual printing of 30-up labels (using a laser/inkjet printer). See Printer FAQ for more details on connecting your printer with Go2Lister.
Box Content
Scan / Enter your items
Using Go2Lister's revolutionary Box Contents feature is quite similar to the process you learned when scanning your inventory into a batch. On the right side of the screen, you will find that Go2Lister has created boxes for each of the shipments in your shipment plan, labeled with the warehouse it is destined for. You should prepare enough boxes and label them with the warehouse code to pack your items as you scan/enter them into the Box Contents section.
Add All to One Box
If your entire shipment will fit into one box, you can save time by clicking the Add All to Box 1 button. This will automatically sort your entire shipment into one box so you can skip scanning each item individually. Don't forget to print and apply your FNSKU labels if you haven't already!
Add Box
If your box exceeds the weight limit before your inventory is completely packed, you'll need to add a box. Click Add Box and a new box will be created for you. You can move inventory to the new box if necessary by clicking Move in your list of inventory.
Remember: Amazon guidelines state that a box can weigh a maximum of 50 lbs. Be sure to keep an eye on the Estimated Weight as you scan, and confirm this weight with an accurate scale before shipping.
Edit Shipment
Once you've accepted a shipment plan, you can only adjust the quantity of each item by:
Up to 5% of the original amount or
6 units, whichever is higher
Example: If you have 100 of a particular SKU in your shipment, you can increase or decrease that number by up to 5 units (5%).

When you've made the necessary changes, click Submit to continue the Box Contents workflow.
View
The View buttons are a handy tool in the Box Contents section that allow you to view the total inventory in a shipment, as well as the contents already assigned to a box. To view the total items in a shipment, click the View button at the top of the right pane.
A page will appear listing the inventory included in this shipment. Items not yet assigned a box will be highlighted in yellow. You can copy your FNSKU here and paste it into the Box Contents section to add it to a box if, for example, the item does not have a barcode to scan.
To see the item list for a specific box, click the View button next to the box you wish to view.
Restore
Occasionally after submitting a shipment, you may find the need to restore a batch, which will take you back to the Box Contents section and allow you to resubmit your shipping details. An example of when this might be needed is when incorrect box dimensions were submitted, resulting in an incorrect shipping fee. Restoring your batch will allow you to create a new shipment containing all of the inventory from the batch, and the old, incorrect shipment can then be deleted from Seller Central (Inventory > Shipments).To restore a batch, look for the Restore button on a completed batch at the top of the screen.
If you already completed the process of purchasing shipping, be sure to click the Shipping button and Void Shipments to be reimbursed for your incorrect shipping label.
