Amazon Seller Central and Zoho, from order to payout

Amazon pays you a net number every settlement. Your books need to know what was inside it.

US sellers who run Amazon next to a Shopify store or wholesale accounts end up with three versions of the truth: Seller Central’s, the warehouse’s and the accountant’s. We connect Amazon to Zoho Inventory so each order commits stock everywhere you sell, record the sale in Zoho Books, and turn each settlement into an entry that splits sales, referral fees, FBA fees and refunds before the deposit is matched.

  • Orders and stock by SKU
  • Settlements split into fees
  • FBA and merchant-fulfilled

01Who needs this

When is Seller Central on its own no longer enough?

The moment Amazon is one channel among several. A seller who only sells on Amazon can live in Seller Central for a long time; the trouble starts when the same shelf feeds a website, a marketplace or a wholesale buyer. Drag each card to compare.

Stock across channels

With Zoho

One count in Zoho Inventory. An Amazon sale lowers what Shopify and eBay can sell within the next sync.

Seller Central

Amazon knows its own stock. Someone updates the other channels by hand or by a spreadsheet upload.

What each order really earned

With Zoho

Settlement lines land on the right Books accounts, so margin per SKU and per channel is a report, not a project.

Seller Central

The payments reports hold every fee, but turning them into a profit and loss is a monthly spreadsheet job.

A single-channel starter

With Zoho

Extra setup and a monthly Zoho plan that a seller with one channel and a few SKUs may not need yet.

Seller Central

Listings, FBA shipments and payouts all live in one place, with your bookkeeper reading the summary.

Reordering from suppliers

With Zoho

Reorder points use sales from every channel, and purchase orders and vendor bills sit next to the stock they refill.

Seller Central

Restock suggestions cover FBA well but cannot see what your own store or wholesale buyers took.

02Amazon integration services

What we set up to connect Amazon to Zoho

Five stops, in the order we do them. The SKU work comes first because every later step matches on it.

  1. 1

    A clean SKU list

    Amazon SKUs, your store SKUs and your item list rarely agree. We build one item per product in Zoho Inventory and record every channel SKU against it.

  2. 2

    The Amazon channel in Zoho Inventory

    Seller Central connected, an order import start date chosen, items mapped by SKU and stock sync switched on only after a test order passes.

  3. 3

    FBA set apart

    Stock sitting in Amazon warehouses is kept separate from your own shelves, and outbound requests for FBA items go to Amazon from the sales order.

  4. 4

    Settlements into Zoho Books

    A clearing account per marketplace, plus a job that reads each settlement report and posts sales, fees, refunds and reserves as one balanced entry.

  5. 5

    Alerts and a margin view

    Failed imports and unmapped SKUs alert a named person, and a dashboard shows margin by channel after Amazon’s fees.

03One order, Day 0 to reconciled

Where does an Amazon order go in Zoho before the money is matched?

Six stops for a sample FBA order. Scroll and the ring closes one stop at a time, from the order to the matched deposit.

  1. Stop 1Day 0 · 9:12 pm · Order

    A buyer orders two pour-over sets

    The order appears in Seller Central as pending. Zoho Inventory imports it as a sales order against the item mapped to that Amazon SKU, with Amazon as the channel.

    Inventory

  2. Stop 2Day 0 · 9:20 pm · Stock

    Every other channel sees two fewer

    The units are committed in the FBA warehouse, and the new available count is pushed out to Amazon and your other connected channels. The last set cannot be sold twice.

    InventoryShopify sync

  3. Stop 3Day 1 · Ship

    Amazon ships it, Zoho records the sale

    For FBA items Amazon picks and ships. For merchant-fulfilled orders your team packs it and the tracking number goes back to Amazon. Either way the sale is invoiced in Zoho Books against the marketplace.

    InventoryBooks

  4. Stop 4Day 9 · Return

    One set comes back

    The buyer returns one set. The refund shows up later in the settlement, so we don’t guess at it now; the return is logged against the order and the unit waits for Amazon to grade it.

    Inventory

  5. Stop 5Day 14 · Settle

    The settlement report gets split into its parts

    Amazon closes the settlement period. Our job reads the report and posts one balanced entry in Zoho Books: sales, referral fees, FBA fees, the refund and any reserve, all to a marketplace clearing account.

    BooksCatalyst

  6. Stop 6Day 16 · Reconcile

    The deposit matches to the penny

    The net payout arrives in your bank feed and matches the clearing account balance, which drops to zero. Margin by SKU and channel is ready for the month-end review.

    BooksAnalytics

Sample order and dates. Amazon sets the settlement period, any reserve held back and when the deposit reaches your bank.

04Amazon + Zoho

Which Zoho apps sit behind an Amazon store?

Zoho Inventory does the daily work with Amazon. The others take what Inventory hands them, plus one small custom piece for settlements.

Built-in channel

Zoho Inventory

Imports Amazon orders from a start date you pick, matches items by SKU, name or both, and pushes stock changes back to Amazon. FBA items get a fulfilment request from the sales order. Read more on Zoho Inventory.

Same organization

Zoho Books

Shares items, customers and invoices with Inventory. Settlement entries, the clearing account and the bank match live here. See Zoho Books.

Custom piece

Settlement job

A scheduled job on Zoho Catalyst reads settlement reports through Amazon’s Selling Partner API and posts them to Books. Very large report volumes can run on AWS Lambda instead.

When you sell B2B

Zoho CRM

Holds wholesale and Amazon Business accounts you sell to directly, with order history from Books. Amazon’s own data rules decide what buyer detail you may keep, so we don’t build mailing lists from it. See Zoho CRM.

Three or more channels

Zoho Analytics

Margin by SKU and channel after fees, return rates and stock cover in one view. Included with Zoho Inventory Enterprise. See Zoho Analytics.

      06What it costs to run

      What do Amazon and Zoho charge for this setup?

      Amazon charges a selling plan plus fees on every sale; Zoho Inventory charges by orders a month. Each Zoho plan also caps users and warehouses, not only orders.

      Amazon US selling plans

      Amazon US selling plans
      Individual$0.99 per item sold
      Professional$39.99 a month

      On top of either plan, a referral fee per item: a percentage of the total price that depends on the category, with a $0.30 minimum in most categories. FBA fulfilment and storage are charged separately, and all of it appears in the settlement report.

      Zoho Inventory, per organization a month

      Zoho Inventory US prices
      PlanYearlyMonthlyOrders
      Free$0$050
      Standard$29$39500
      Premium$79$993,000
      Plus$129$1597,500
      Enterprise$249$29915,000

      For our part, the SKU cleanup, channel setup, FBA handling and the settlement job are scoped together and written into a signed BRD at one fixed price. A catalog with thousands of messy SKUs may need a short paid SKU review first, priced before it starts; the first call costs nothing.

      07Amazon + Zoho questions

      Amazon Seller Central and Zoho questions

      FBA, settlements, stock across channels and currencies. Bring one recent settlement report to the first call and we’ll show you where each line would land.

      Does Zoho Inventory integrate with Amazon Seller Central?

      Yes. Amazon is a built-in sales channel in Zoho Inventory. Orders from your chosen start date come in as sales orders, items are matched by SKU, name or both, and stock changes you make in Zoho Inventory are pushed to Amazon. You can also fetch Amazon’s stock counts once during the first sync.

      Does the Zoho Inventory Amazon integration work with FBA?

      Yes. For FBA items, creating an outbound shipment from the sales order sends a fulfilment request to Amazon; items you ship yourself on the same order go out separately. FBA tracking and FBA warehouse mapping cannot be switched on at the same time, so we choose one with you.

      Can Zoho Books reconcile Amazon payouts and fees?

      Yes, with a settlement step we add. Amazon pays a net amount after referral fees, FBA fees, refunds and reserves. We read each settlement report and post it to Zoho Books as one balanced entry through a clearing account, so the bank deposit matches it exactly.

      Will stock stay right between Amazon and our Shopify store?

      Zoho Inventory becomes the one stock count. An order on either channel commits units there, and the new available quantity is pushed to every connected channel. Clean SKUs are what make it work, which is why mapping comes first.

      Which Amazon selling plan should we be on?

      Amazon’s Individual plan costs $0.99 per item sold and suits a few items a month; Professional is $39.99 a month. Sellers who need a connected setup like this one are almost always on Professional, and we plan around it.

      Can we connect Amazon Canada or Mexico too?

      Zoho Inventory needs its base currency to match the channel’s currency, so a US dollar organization cannot take Canadian or Mexican peso orders directly. The usual answers are a separate Zoho organization per currency or a custom import; we compare both on the first call.

      Can Amazon buyers go into Zoho CRM for marketing?

      Not as a mailing list. Amazon restricts how sellers store and use buyer contact details. Zoho CRM is for wholesale and Amazon Business accounts you also sell to directly, plus channel-level sales history from Zoho Books.

      How is an Amazon and Zoho project priced?

      The first call is free. SKU cleanup, channel setup, FBA handling, the settlement job and alerts then go into a signed BRD at a fixed price with a delivery schedule. Very large or messy catalogs may get a short paid SKU review first, quoted up front.

      08How an Amazon integration starts

      The first look is at your SKUs and one settlement

      Four steps from “we reconcile Amazon in a spreadsheet” to a signed plan. Most sellers can be scoped from a SKU export and a single settlement report.

      We work with sellers across the US, Canada and Latin America over video, and visit warehouses around Los Angeles when walking the shelves helps.
