FNSKU for product variation
The product I’m selling will have to variations, white and black. The white was the first listing and I’m able to find the FNSKU when I go to print labels. However, the black variation only populates a barcode with the ASIN, not an FNSKU, so the number starts with a B instead of an X. I’ve deleted the black variation and recreated it, but still just get the ASIN. This product will not be sold by anyone else, so is this an issue or just how it works when there’s only 2 variations? How do I fix this if it is a problem?

Good Afternoon @Seller_JHQY6qZrZM0hA,
I wanted to stop by and see if you still had questions about labeling your two variations? I didn't see a support case filed with Selling Partner Support, but if you have one, please provide it to us so we can take a look.
I did find this help page -->HERE<-- about using Amazon barcodes to track inventory that says:
When printing Amazon barcodes onto labels, make sure that the printed labels match the formatting of the Seller Central generated label:
- Sufficient white space around the Amazon barcode and related text: (0.25 inch on the sides and 0.125 inch on the top and bottom)
- Sufficient white space around the label content and the edges (0.25 inch on the sides and 0.125 inch on the top and bottom)
- ASIN or FNSKU included
- Product name included
- Item condition included
Base on the information above, it sounds like it doesn't matter if the ASIN or the FNSKU is printed on the label, as long as you have one or the other.
Feel free to reach back out if you have any question about the information shared above. Have a wonderful rest of your Wednesday!
Sincerely, Cooper_Amazon
