Streamlining Inventory Management for Amazon Sellers

Overview

This project focuses on redesigning the inventory management experience within Amazon Seller Central. I targeted key pain points in bulk editing, product visibility, and status clarity for third-party sellers managing large catalogs.

The Challenge

Sellers struggle to make changes quickly due to overwhelming tables, unclear product status, and inefficient bulk actions. I restructured the experience to support clarity and control.

Solution

• Showcased how a reimagined inventory system could reduce task time for sellers managing 50+ SKUs

• Created a scalable interface that aligns with modern data-heavy B2B dashboards

• Received strong validation from sellers in my network

My Approach

• Analyzed inventory workflows from Amazon and competitors

• Designed simplified table UI with inline editing

• Created flows for common pain points: status updates, quantity edits, pricing

• Designed modals and filters for power users

Key Design Decisions

• Column flexibility: Introduced drag-and-drop and hide/show functionality for table columns.

• Clear status indicators: Used color, iconography, and tags to show inventory health at a glance.

• Bulk edit flow: Designed a consistent side panel for multi-item edits without disorienting page reloads.

Results & What's Next

• Simplified bulk editing and clearer inventory states improve seller task efficiency, especially for large catalogs.

• Concept was positively received by sellers frustrated with the current table complexity.

• Future improvements could include predictive alerts for low inventory, better mobile optimization, and inline editing at scale.
