What is the Listing Activity page?
The Listing Activity page shows a timeline of everything that happens on a listing. Price changes, cost changes, orders, Buy Box wins and losses, and manual edits, each displayed in order on its own card.
Use this page to see why the repricer made a change, check if an order was placed, or track how actions affect your listing over time. For example, you can see if winning the Buy Box led to more orders or how raising your minimum price changed repricer behavior.
How can I access the Listing Activity page?
You can open the Listing Activity page from the Listings, Orders, or Price Changes pages.
On the Listings page, click the menu icon under Actions column for an individual listing and click the Activity button.
On the Orders or Price Changes pages, click the Activity icon in any row to go to the Listing Activity page for that SKU.
What kind of information can be found on the Listing Activity page?
Price Change Timeline and Details
The key event on the Listing Activity timeline is the Price Change. Each price change made by Informed Repricer appears in order, showing the "from" and "to" prices on the card so you can quickly see what changed. Click "Why this price?" on any card to view the reason for that change.
If several price changes happen in a row with no other events between them, they are grouped into one card. The summary shows the full range of changes. You can expand the card to see each individual change.
You might see two types of badges on a price change card:
Retry (yellow): This means the same price change was sent more than once in a row, usually because Amazon was slow to update the price.
Overridden (red): This shows the card's "from" price does not match the previous card's "to" price, which means the price was changed outside of Informed Repricer.
Listing and Strategy Changes
Any time data is changed on a specific listing via the Edit Listing window or via an upload, those changes are shown on the listing activity timeline as a Listing Edited event. This allows you to see the exact changes that were made and better audit the cause and effect of changes made to a product.
You can also see how strategy changes affect a listing under Strategy Recalculated events. These show what changed as a result of a new strategy. For example, if you raise a strategy's profit-based minimum price from 5% to 8%, the higher minimum price will appear in the Strategy Recalculated event.
Buy Box and Stock Updates
The timeline shows every time the Buy Box is won or lost. It also displays when an item goes out of stock or comes back in stock.
Order Data
Orders appear on the timeline as Sales cards. When multiple sales occur in sequence with no other events between them, they are combined into a single card showing the total revenue on the closed view. Expand the card to see each individual sale, including the date, item price, order status, and order number.
Rejected Price Changes
When repricing your listings, we determine which items need new prices and group these changes into a feed. We send this feed to Amazon, and once they receive it, they process the price updates and send back a response file.
Sometimes Amazon rejects a price change. There are three possible reasons for this:
Request has been throttled: Throttling is the process of limiting the number of requests you (or your authorized developer) can submit to a given operation in a given amount of time. Throttling protects the web service from being overwhelmed with requests.
Marketplace is too new or inactive: If you marketplace is too new or inactive you will either have to wait or activate your marketplace within Seller Central.
Invalid Credentials: If your marketplace's credentials are invalid you will have to validate them. If this is the case, you should see a banner at the top of your account with instructions to re-validate your credentials.
To know if any of your price changes have been rejected, you will see a Reject Price Change notification on your Listing Activity page.
