How to Create Listing Replenishment Alerts on Amazon
Keeping your inventory in stock is a vital part of success on Amazon. If you run out or run low on inventory not only do you lose out on sales, but you lose all of the investment you had made up until that point in order to gain momentum.
To help with this, Amazon provides a tool to easily visualize what products in your inventory are at risk.
It is called Amazon inventory replenishment alerts and they are essential for sellers to stay on top of their stock, avoid running out of products, or ordering too much. These alerts notify you when your inventory is running low, giving you the chance to restock before you miss any sales.
Many sellers wonder, “Can’t I just check my inventory manually?” While that might work for a small number of products, it’s easy to miss trends or forget to reorder in time. This can lead to stockouts or overstocking. Replenishment alerts eliminate the guesswork, automatically reminding you when it’s time to restock, so you don’t have to worry about missing important updates.

Setting up the alerts is easy and takes just a couple of minutes.
