Connecting your Account
You'll need to authorize Dext Commerce to connect the Amazon Seller Marketplace account. Follow the simple steps below:
Requirements for Connections
In order to use Amazon Seller with Dext Commerce, your account must meet the following requirements:
You must have Super-Admin (store owner) access
You must have a Pro Seller subscription and be using Amazon Seller Central Marketplace or Amazon Handmande
You will need to do provide access for each region you intend to connect.
In the sidebar, navigate to Sales > New Connect and select Sales
Choose Amazon Seller Central with the region you wish to connect.
Select Connect
You will be redirected to an Amazon Seller authorization page. Enter your Amazon Seller credentials and select Sign-In
Review the terms, and check the authorization box at the bottom. Then select Confirm
Commerce will begin to fetch your transaction data.
How to Unarchive Amazon Statements
If you need Amazon Seller Central statements containing transactions older than 90 days, you need to request them from Amazon. By default, Amazon archives statements after 90 days.
Follow these steps to unarchive your Amazon Seller Central statements:
Login to your Amazon Seller account
Click Reports > Payments
Click All Statements
Locate the desired time frame(s) then click Request Report
Important Note: Make sure you find ALL the reports for your requested time range, or our system will not be able to pull your requested data.
Keep in mind that settlement reports may have beginning dates before the dates you request, those reports will need to be unarchived as well. Additionally, keep in mind that all reports for your requested time frame will need to be unarchived. For instance, if you use Amazon Seller Europe, and request historical data for your UK Amazon store, you will still need to check Amazon FR and Amazon DE etc. to see if any Amazon reports need to be unarchived for the requested time period, even if you don't typically sell in those regions. Another place that reports may be hiding is in the dropdown for "Account type", there may be a report for a single invoice based sale, even if you don't typically do business in that way
Once unarchived, Commerce is able to access the transactional data. Amazon will archive them again in 90 days, but the data will now remain in Commerce.
While they are accessible, you are essentially sharing them with Commerce just like they were new transactions being auto-fetched for you. There's no need to worry about duplicates; Commerce always searches for matching transactions and prevents them.
Legacy Method (Developer ID)

As of July 26th, this method is will no longer be used for Amazon Seller connections. Instead, connections will use Amazon's new OAuth 2.0 API.
