For many manufacturers and enterprise brands, working with Amazon Vendor Central (1P) feels like a fast track to growth. Amazon places bulk orders, manages pricing, and handles fulfillment. But once you’re in, the reality often hits hard:<
- Endless compliance rules
- EDI complexity
- Fines for minor issues
- Manual work across disconnected systems
If you’re using SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, or another ERP, you’ve likely already experienced the friction of trying to fit Amazon’s rigid workflows into your existing structure.
The Hidden Complexity of Amazon 1P
On the surface, it’s simple: Amazon sends purchase orders, you ship goods, they pay you.But in reality, 1P operations can overwhelm your internal teams:- Strict EDI formats that don’t align with your ERP
- Chargebacks and fines for delays, missing data, or incorrect shipping labels
- Manual re-entry between systems
- No real-time overview across departments
- Confusion between Sales, Finance, and Logistics
Does this sound familiar?
