Every month, FBA damages and returns a slice of your inventory — and the reimbursements you could claim quietly slip by if no one is watching. Unilytic reads your Amazon returns and reimbursement reports and surfaces every damaged or unreturned unit by warehouse, type, and SKU — with an estimated value at risk — so you know which claims are worth filing.
Amazon's own reports tell you a unit came back damaged — they just don't add it up, file it for you, or flag it as worth claiming. Unilytic reads your returns reports and sorts every unit into the five categories Amazon uses: customer damaged, warehouse damaged, distributor damaged, carrier damaged, and defective. Each is counted by warehouse and over time, with per-SKU drill-down, so a recurring problem at one facility doesn't slip past quarter close.
A damaged unit is easy to miss in a raw report. Unilytic's Returns Reconciliation view estimates the value lost on each return — using your real sale price and Amazon fees — and skips the cases where Amazon owes nothing, such as units that came back sellable or SKUs whose fees already exceed their price. Sort by warehouse to find the facility eating your margin, or by SKU to spot the product that's damaged on every inbound, and decide which claims are worth your time.
The hard part of a claim isn't spotting it — it's proving it. Unilytic keeps the paper trail so a reimbursement case writes itself.
Export any filtered view — date range, warehouse, damage type — as a clean Excel sheet with SKU, date, quantity, and the estimated value lost. Hand it to finance or use it as the basis for a Seller Central case without re-keying a thing.
Watch damaged returns move over time. A spike in carrier-damaged units at one warehouse is a conversation with Amazon; a steady climb in customer damage is a packaging fix. The timeline tells you which.
Amazon's reimbursement claim windows are limited, so the longer a damaged unit sits unnoticed, the likelier it is to expire. Reviewing your returns regularly in Unilytic means losses surface while there's still time to act on them.
Connect SP-API or upload your Amazon returns and reimbursement reports, and Unilytic surfaces every damaged or unreturned unit sorted by warehouse, SKU, and damage type. Its Returns Reconciliation view also estimates the value lost on each return (your sale price minus Amazon fees), so you can see which cases are worth filing instead of scrubbing raw reports by hand.
It shows an estimate of the value at risk — your sale price minus Amazon fees, clearly marked as an estimate — not a guaranteed payout. It deliberately excludes cases where Amazon owes nothing, such as units returned in sellable condition or SKUs whose fees already exceed their price. The final reimbursement is always determined by Amazon when you file.
No — Unilytic identifies and documents what's worth claiming and exports a case-ready Excel sheet, but the claim is filed from your own Seller Central account. We request read-only SP-API scope, so Unilytic can read your inventory and returns data but cannot act on your account.
