What each side expects
Amazon and Spring GDS do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
Amazon
Amazon thinks in orders per marketplace, with an ASIN or SKU per line and its own order number. The shipping deadline is hard, and the country sold into decides which VAT rate belongs to which line.
Spring GDS
An operational system wants complete data: an address that is right, a product that exists, and clarity on exactly what goes out the door.

Common questions
Can you connect Amazon to Spring GDS?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Amazon and Spring GDS, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Does Spring GDS need a complete address, and what if it is wrong?
Spring GDS needs a full delivery address to make a label. If the country and postcode do not match up, that shipment is held and shows in the log, rather than a wrong label coming out.
Can I choose the carrier in Spring GDS myself?
Yes. Which carrier and shipping method Spring GDS uses you set there; Schakel only hands the shipment over complete.
Do I still have to log into Amazon once the connector runs?
No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the Amazon seller account arrives in Spring GDS by itself. You only open Amazon when you want to check something yourself.
What does connecting Amazon and Spring GDS cost?
You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.
How often does Amazon sync with Spring GDS?
That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.
Does the connector also pick up Amazon returns and cancellations?
Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on Amazon, so Spring GDS does not lag behind what actually sold.
What if Amazon or Spring GDS is briefly unavailable?
Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.
