Case Study: Amazon Simplifies FBA Accounting and Improves Reconciliation with Synder

Amazon saves 70+ hours a month with Synder

The customer, Amazon, faced significant accounting challenges due to the complex timing and structure of its FBA settlements. These issues, including bundled payouts and misaligned fees, made profit margins hard to trust and reconciliation a manual, time-consuming process. The vendor, Synder, provided its accounting automation software to address these pain points.

Synder's solution reorganized Amazon's financial data before it reached the ledger, breaking down settlements into their individual components like sales, fees, and refunds. This approach eliminated timing distortions and restored clarity to financial reports. The results were highly measurable: one team reduced daily reconciliation from 3-4 hours to under an hour, saving over 70 hours monthly, while another saved over $60,000 annually in avoided headcount costs while maintaining 99.5% reconciliation accuracy.
