[Virtual Event] Fixing the Close: Understanding Amazon’s Data Problem for Scaling Ecommerce Brands 

If you’ve ever struggled to reconcile Amazon sales data, you’re not alone.

Between unpredictable data releases, two-week payout cadences, and fulfillment delays, most accounting teams have given up on doing things the “right” way. Instead, they rely on manual journal entries pulled from settlement reports—often weeks late.

80% of Amazon sellers don’t know about the data drift problem.
The other 20% know it exists—but don’t know a solution exists.

Join accounting experts from Blue Onion for a session where we’ll break down Amazon’s reporting issues. We'll share how accounting teams at scaling ecommerce businesses can address these challenges.

The problem for Amazon sellers

 

Amazon wasn’t built with accounting in mind. And it shows.

Our experts see the same patterns across ecommerce brands of all sizes:

  • Reporting challenges – Amazon’s native reports aren’t structured for accounting workflows.

  • Data accessibility issues – Key reports are hard to access, interpret, and reconcile.

  • Financial impact – Misaligned data causes reconciliation headaches and delayed closes.

What looks like “just another reporting delay” is actually a structural problem that only gets worse as your business scales.

What you'll learn

 

During this session, we'll cover:

  1. Real-world examples of how Amazon data drift shows up inside scaling ecommerce brands
  2. Why these problems multiply as revenue grows across multiple channels
