Upload errors
To get the result of a feed upload, use the invoice-status-description column in the VIDR. If there is an error during upload, it is listed in invoice-status-description and the shipment is listed in the PendingInvoices view.
Don't use GetSubmissionFeedResult to get results of the uploaded feeds. GetSubmissionFeedResult is used for all feed types, and the standard throttle limits apply.
The following errors can be returned when you submit a feed to upload an invoice:
| Error | Cause | Code |
|---|---|---|
FeatureNotAvailableInvoice Upload API is in a closed beta. Contact Seller Support or your account manager if you want to use this feature. | VCS with self-invoicing option is not available to all sellers by default.

MultipleShipmentsOrderId {orderId} has multiple shipments. Provide the shipment ID. | If an order has multiple shipments and an invoice is uploaded against the order ID, Amazon returns this error because we cannot map the invoice to a shipment.
