How to reactivate suppressed listings on Amazon

When reviewing your inventory on Amazon’s Seller Central it can be surprising to learn certain listings have been suppressed, but reactivating these listings is an easy fix.

If a listing is missing any of Amazon‚Äôs required elements, it will be suppressed, or deactivated, until those product details have been added. 

 

A listing can be suppressed for many different issues, but its product details are typically the reason why — Amazon’s algorithm will suppress listings with inaccurate titles, wrong brand name, and/or missing attributes such as Color, Size, and Color Map.

 

Notifications are not currently sent by Amazon to alert sellers of a suppressed listing, but it’s still important to keep your Listing Notifications on within Seller Central, to be notified when a listing is created, or if it has been closed.

You can keep track of listing status through the Manage Inventory page in Amazon Seller Central, however.

 

There you can select Create and manage inventory, then Suppressed Listings to see whether listings are Active, Inactive, or Suppressed, as well as the reason an item has been suppressed.
