Amazon Business Analytics expands purchase document download capabilities with Bulk Download

Customers are now able to access up to 2,000 purchase documents in one download

Amazon Business Analytics recently increased its bulk download capability, making it easier for customers worldwide to access their purchase documents at faster speeds. Once capped at just 15 orders per-download, customers can now enjoy access to up to 2,000 of these purchase documents at once — 133x the current capacity.

 

Before this increase, customers were hindered by the download limit, which made accessing larger quantities of purchase documents a time-consuming process. Customers who received tax-qualified invoices for each shipment were forced to deal with thousands of invoice files per month, and at 15 documents per download, this became a more manual process, leading to frustration.

“The Bulk Download feature is just another way we’re looking to improve the reconciliation experience,” said Norihito Ishibashi, Director, Amazon Business. “Our customers were consistent in their feedback that they wanted more than 15 orders per download. By increasing this number, we aim to limit the manual work, and make our customers’ procurement processes and accounting operations run more smoothly.” 

 

Previously, the purchase document download experience was limited both in number of orders and types of documents available to customers. Within the Reports section of the Amazon Business Analytics dashboard, customers could click “Get order documents” and choose from selected orders to download. 

 

Now, customers can see a newly-added “Download order documents” dropdown at the top of their Reports page, where they can select specific documents or download all documents (up to 2,000 orders). Additionally, customers can choose the types of documents to download, which are exported into a ZIP file and available in “see download history.”

Documents from which customers can choose are VAT invoices, PBI invoices, and Printable order summaries — the availability of each making tax filing that much easier. Once a document is downloaded, the customer will be alerted at the top of the page, directing them to their download history. 


"We are always looking for feedback from our customers to inform how we innovate and improve our features, and this is a huge improvement for our business customers looking for easier-to-access analytics," said Vikram Ramadoss, Senior Product Manager at Amazon Business. 

 

Bulk Download is the latest update to the Amazon Business Analytics and Payments experience, joining earlier launches like Charge Identifier, enablement of Direct Debit through Invoice by Amazon, and updates to Credit Memo Processing
