Repricing behavior when Back-Ordered (Reserved)

Back Ordered is a retailer's order for a product that is temporarily out of stock with the supplier.

An item is considered back ordered in our system when the following conditions apply:

• It is reported as an active listing (in Amazon’s reports).

• It has 0 fulfillable quantity.

• It has any type of Inbound inventory (shipped, receiving, working).

• It has an Earliest Availability date (The date Amazon expects the item will be available for purchase in their system.)

When an item is back-ordered, you can still win the buy box, however, the fair share % of the buy box is diminished due to the slower shipping time and availability of the item.

To compensate for this scenario, we offer three repricing phases:

1. Repricer follows the current buy box price - The item price will follow the concurrent buy box price of the item within its price range. (The Default Behavior).
   
   

2. Reprice as Out of stock - We will price the item according to your account-level configuration for Repricing behavior when an Item goes Out Of Stock.
   
   

3. Reprice Regularly - The algorithm will ignore the Back Ordered status and reprice as if it is in stock. Please note that it will most likely be at a lower price since there are fewer chances of winning the buy box while back-ordered.
