If you want to do anything Amazon, including uploads or
acquiring data form Amazon then you must have a Pro Merchant account at
Amazon, and you need to have an Amazon service entry in the Online section of
BookTrakker. If you are a previous user of BookTrakker that has updated an
earlier version and already upload to Amazon then read IMPORTANT below, and if it doesn't apply go onto the next step.
Otherwise: Click the Online button at the top. The Online screen opens. Click the New Service button at the bottom left corner. (Do Not Edit an existing service into Amazon) Where it says Select or Type in New Service click the dropdown button on the right and select your Amazon service. Click Next, click Finish. Then check the checkbox under Active where you see your Amazon service in the list of Online Services. This is important. Do not skip this step. You can add one each of the different Amazon services if you also have separate Pro Merchant accounts for each. Close BookTrakker with the X in the upper right corner. IMPORTANT: Only ONE Amazon per site entry is allowed. Only one instance of Amazon US and/or Amazon CA and/or Amazon UK. If you have more than one identical entry then determine which one is the correct one and delete the others. To delete rows select the row you want to delete by clicking on the gray square to the left of the service name so its highlighted, then press the Delete key on your keyboard. You MUST do this before the next step. Close BookTrakker |

Click the Amazon MWS Seller Account Registration button. The AmazonMWS form appears. The selection defaults to Amazon US, if this is where you list click the Register with Amazon button at the bottom. Otherwise select a different Amazon and click the Register with Amazon button.

The Amazon license page will open. Both check boxes on the left side need to be checked to go onto the next step. Reading the license/page is optional. Check the boxes, click Next.
