Question

Amazon ASN generating as No Pack – guidance needed on Auto-Pack Template / Pick & Pack configuration

Hi everyone,

We’re running into an issue with Amazon ASNs generated from Acumatica that is currently blocking Amazon shipments, and we’re looking for guidance or best practices.

Scenario:

  • We use Acumatica integrated with TrueCommerce for Amazon shipments.

  • Transaction Manager is configured for Pick & Pack.

  • However, ASNs generated from Acumatica are still coming through as ASNType = No Pack.

When Transaction Manager expects Pick & Pack but receives a No Pack ASN, the import fails with “Import Format Not Found” (understandably, due to the ASN type mismatch).

What we’ve observed:

  • Shipments can be confirmed even if the Pack step is not fully completed.

  • In some cases, a package row exists, but:

    • No contents are assigned to the package, and/or

    • No tracking number exists prior to shipment confirmation.

  • When we attempt to use Auto Pack, we receive an error indicating that the shipment items are not represented in an Auto-Pack Template.

Because packages (with contents + tracking) do not exist at confirmation time, Acumatica generates a No Pack ASN, which then causes the downstream failure.

Questions for the community:

  1. How are Auto-Pack Templates typically set up in this scenario?

    • Per inventory item?

    • Or at an item class / rule-based level?

  2. Are there specific conditions that must be met for Auto-Pack Templates to apply successfully (warehouse, item class, box type, etc.)?

  3. What is the recommended way to prevent users from confirming shipments before Pack is fully completed?

  4. Once packages with contents and tracking exist before confirmation, should Acumatica automatically generate Pick & Pack ASNs, or is additional configuration required?

At the moment, Amazon fulfillment is paused (we’ve had to place the account in vacation mode), so any insight or examples of a working Pick & Pack + Auto-Pack setup would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance for any guidance or experience you can share.

You can click this checkbox on the Ship Via profile page (CS207500) this will require the user to “pack” the items into the box.

 

However, it could still have errors. If you have two boxes and the user packed everything in Acumatica into box 1, the Acumatica will allow you to confirm even if box 2 is empty.
