You can remove items from shipments as long as they are in "Working" status.
If you remove an item from your working shipment in InventoryLab, it will delete it from your shipment in InventoryLab as well as the shipment in Seller Central. Any edits you make will also be reflected in the batch once it is closed and displayed on the List>Closed Batches page.
Depending on the Box Content setting for the batch that the shipments were created from and where you are in the workflow for the batch, the process to delete items is a little different. For steps, pick the option that best fits your scenario below.
Note: With the Send to Amazon workflow, you can only follow the "Box Contents On" steps below prior to navigating to the shipment's page in Seller Central. Once you are on the shipment page with Send to Amazon, changes can no longer be made through their API.
Box Content On - Proposed FBA Shipments Page
With Box Contents On or Off, you can delete items from shipments once you have created a proposed shipment on the Proposed FBA Shipments page.
At that point, the Qty field for each item in the shipment becomes editable in the Selected Shipping Plan Contents area.
To delete an item from the shipment, click in the Qty field and change the value to zero.
After clicking out of the field or pressing Tab or Enter/Return on your keyboard, you will then see a pop-up confirming your choice for deletion.
Click Yes to confirm, and the item will be removed from the shipment in InventoryLab, as well as the shipment in Seller Central.
You can also delete these items by clicking on the trashcan icon next to the Qty field.
Once you are happy with the items in the shipments, click the Enter Box Contents button to move to the Box Content page.

With the Send to Amazon workflow, the only time you can change the quantity of units in a shipment is during Step 3, which takes place after completing the box content information and confirming shipping charges.
To do this, during Step 3, click View or edit contents next to the shipment.
A window will open where you can make adjustments to the quantity of each item in the shipment (by the 5% or 6 unit rule) or click the trash can icon to delete an item completely.
Note: If you make any changes to the number of units in the shipment during Step 3 of the Send to Amazon workflow, you will also need to adjust your replenishment rows in InventoryLab for the items accordingly to avoid inventory alerts.
