Let’s go through each step one by one

1. Payment Verification

The software initiates the payment verification process, by generating a two-tier summary of the order report. The first tier is structured based on order ID and SKU, while the second tier relies on a unique order ID (Amazon order summary). Within this order summary, Amazon’s initial level of verification is executed. Subsequently, it is connected with the Disbursement report (payment report) and MTR report (invoice report) using a unique order ID as a reference point. This linkage enables the verification of the expected amount from the MTR report against the Disbursement report. The precision of this process ensures accurate reconciliation and a transparent overview of financial transactions.

2. Fees Verification 

Amazon imposes several fees on a single order, Shipping Fee, Closing Fee, Referral Fee, Pick and Pack Fee, Tech Fee, and more. To ensure accuracy, Cointab employs a meticulous verification process for each fee category.

Amazon Shipping Fee Verification:

Our system relies on a comprehensive Rate Card, meticulously crafted by factoring in crucial elements such as Shipping zone, SKU weights (derived from the client’s item description), fulfillment type, and step level. This ensures precise verification of Amazon’s Shipping Fee. 

Closing Fee Verification:

The Closing Fee verification process utilizes a specialized rate card structured around the price range of an item. This tailored approach ensures that Closing Fees are accurately verified… 

Referral Fee Verification

Verification of Referral fees is conducted through a detailed examination of the referral fee percentage, a metric derived from the specific details provided by Amazon. This meticulous process guarantees the accurate assessment of Referral Fees associated with each order

3. Settlement amount in the bank

The verification of the amount to be settled by Amazon involves a meticulous process of linking the disbursement file to the bank statement. This crucial step ensures that the settled amount is accurately cross-verified directly with the bank records, providing a report of the financial transactions.

The above Result section is for verification of the settlement amount in the bank,
