| To create a Hit List to find
books set for Available and listed on Amazon as International or
Expedite, these are the steps you would follow:
|
|
These
instructions are for very specific Hit Lists. You can modify
the what you search for if you want different records to work with.
You should backup your database before doing any Action Hit Lists if
you are not familiar with them. |
| 1. |
Click on "Hit List" tab (2nd from bottom on left side of screen) |
| 2. |
Click New. A pop-up prompt window appears.
Type in a name for this Hit List and enter it in the field next to
"Name". Click OK to close the pop-up. |
| 3. |
The "Set Field
Criteria" tab displays with your cursor positioned in the
"Search Field" column. A drop-down button should be there; if it isn't, click anywhere inside the field to display it. |
| 4. |
In this first row in the
"Search Field" column, click on the drop-down button & select
"Status" from the list of choices. "AVAILABLE" appears automatically in the Search Criteria column. |
| 5. |
Click in
the row/field below "Status" and select
"Marketplace". It will default to "Yes" under
Search Criteria. |
| 6. |
Click in
the row/field below "Marketplace" and select
"International". It will default to "Yes" under
Search Criteria. |
| 7. |
Executing
the Hit List will find all Available records on Amazon set for
International shipping. Now you need to quantify just which records
you want to work with if not all of them. If you just want to
uncheck International for all Available/Marketplace records then go
to Step 11. Otherwise: |
| 8. |
Let's
assume you want to qualify by Retail Price and Weight. Retail Price
at or below $20 and Weight = 0. (0 is the default when Amazon does
not have a weight, or you don't know what the Amazon weight is.) |
| 9. |
Click in
the row/field below "International" and select
"Retail Price". Over on the right, under "Search
Criteria" type in 20. To the right under "Search
Criteria" change "Greater Than or Equal to" by
clicking the dropdown and selecting "Less Than or Equal
to". If you Execute this Hit List it will find all Available
records on Amazon set for International shipping priced at $20 or
less. If this is all you want then go onto Step 11.
Otherwise: |
| 10. |
Click in
the row/field below "Retail Price" and select
"Weight". Over on the right, under "Search
Criteria" type in 0. To the right under "Search
Criteria" change "Greater Than or Equal to" by
clicking the dropdown and selecting "Less Than or Equal
to". If you Execute this Hit List it will find all
Available records on Amazon set for International shipping priced at
$20 or less with Weight equal to zero. (This Hit List does not find
records where there is nothing in Weight at all. You may have to
decide to err on the side of conservative and not qualify by
Weight.) |
| 11. |
VERIFY
THAT THE RECORDS ARE CORRECT BEFORE PROCEEDING TO THE NEXT STEP.
|

|
| 15. |
Click the
"Execute" button. The hit List will start to process, then
a message box will popup asking you if you want to change records.

For UK and CA sellers
repeat Steps 19-22, substituting Amz UK ship or Amz CA Ship for
Expedite or International, and selecting the shipping option you want
in Values, below.
|
| 24. |
For UK
or CA sellers to eliminate Expedited selling repeat Steps 19-23 to

independent of the US. If you sell on multiple sites its an either/or
proposition.
