Amazon Strategy Price Comparison

Side-by-side of every strategy's calculated Min/Max price band against the current live Amazon price for each SKU, with a variance % per band and current stock — so you can spot where a strategy's price has drifted from the market.

Amazon Strategy Price Comparison

Purpose

  • Sales / Pricing managers use it to audit whether each strategy's computed band still tracks the live Amazon selling price.
  • Highlights bands that deviate more than 5% from the current Amazon price (rendered red).
  • Shows AFN (Amazon-fulfilled) vs. other-warehouse stock alongside prices, to read price and availability together.
  • Each rebuild re-fetches the live Amazon selling price first, so the comparison is always against fresh prices.

How to Access

Desk > Reports > Amazon Strategy Price Comparison, or /app/query-report/Amazon Strategy Price Comparison. Report type: Script Report. Reference DocType: Amazon Product Pricing. Roles: Sales User, Sales Manager, System Manager.

FBA Min Currency calculated_min_price of the linked FBA strategy.

Non-Prime Min Currency calculated_min_price of the Default strategy (labelled "Non-Prime").
Non-Prime Max Currency calculated_max_price of the Default strategy.
Current Amazon Price Currency Proxy SKU.current_selling_price — the live price fetched at rebuild.
FBA Min Var % … Non-Prime Max Var % Percent One variance column per band: (price − amazon_price) / amazon_price * 100, rounded to 2 dp. Blank when either side is missing/zero.
AFN Stock Float Total Bin.actual_qty in the AFN warehouse (Amazon SP API Settings.afn_warehouse).
Other Stock Float Total Bin.actual_qty across all non-rejected warehouses excluding the AFN warehouse.

How It Works

The data query joins Amazon Product Pricing to its four strategy slots — fba_strategy, sfp_strategy, backorder_strategy, default_strategy (aliased non_prime) — pulling each one's calculated_min_price / calculated_max_price, plus the Proxy SKU's current_selling_price. For each row and each of the 8 bands, a variance % is computed against the current Amazon price; variance is left blank if either the band price or the Amazon price is zero/missing (a 0 price is deliberately not treated as −100%). Stock is summed from Bin: AFN stock from the configured AFN warehouse, other stock from every non-rejected warehouse except AFN.

  BIN[Bin + Warehouse<br/>actual_qty] --> STOCK[AFN vs Other stock]
  VAR --> OUT[price bands + Var % + stock<br/>red when |var| > 5%]
  STOCK --> OUT

Conditional formatting: the JS pairs each price cell with its variance cell (PRICE_TO_VARIANCE map). When |variance| > 5 (VARIANCE_THRESHOLD), both the price cell and its variance cell render red and bold.

Strategy meaning (priority order used elsewhere to pick the active one): FBA (FBA stock > 0) → SFP (SFP available, no pending restock) → Backorder (pending restock date) → Default/Non-Prime (fallback). This report shows all four bands at once regardless of which is active, so you can see what each would price at.

Notes

  • This report runs a live Amazon price fetch on every rebuild (process_bulk_selling_price_fetch over all active Proxy SKUs) and commits — it is heavier than a plain read report.
  • A strategy slot left unlinked on the pricing record yields blank Min/Max and blank variance for that band.
  • The "Default" strategy is surfaced under the Non-Prime label in the columns.
  • Related: Amazon Pricing Feed Preview for what the active strategy's band would actually push.
