Amazon continues restructuring how sellers navigate Seller Central, consolidating several previously scattered workflows into three unified tools: Manage Products, Manage Shipments, and Manage FBA Inventory.
What Changed in Seller Central
As part of the ongoing update to Seller Central, Amazon introduces three consolidated tools accessible from the left navigation:
- Manage Products: Edit listings, fix suppressed ASINs, manage inventory, and track product health from one page.
- Manage Shipments: View shipment tracking, status, details, and discrepancy alerts in one consolidated view.
- Manage FBA Inventory: See inventory health and manage inventory levels directly.
Existing data and workflows remain unchanged.
Customizable Views
Sellers can now choose which data points to see or hide and save those view preferences, reducing friction for large or varied catalogs.
AI-Enabled Insights Through Seller Assistant
Seller Assistant is now embedded directly in Manage Products, letting sellers ask for insights or take selected actions without leaving the page.

Consolidated Workflows: What This Actually Solves
Before this update, managing a shipment discrepancy, checking inventory health, and fixing a suppressed listing meant navigating between three or more separate pages. The consolidation addresses this directly across all three tools.
How to Access the New Tools
Each tool is accessible directly from the left navigation in updated Seller Central. No migration is required. Check our newsletter for ongoing Seller Central coverage.
