I Can’t Access the Right Seller Central Account or Function
Use this guide when an approved user cannot sign in, can sign in but sees the wrong access, is missing an expected function, or appears to have the wrong role/account state.
Follow the diagnostic path before opening a ticket. Do not send passwords, OTPs, reset links, session cookies or secret tokens to support.
Which Access Boundary Is Actually Failing?
Check identity, account context, role and workflow availability separately.
Use the Approved Recovery Path Once, then Escalate if Access Still Fails
- Confirm Seller Central URL.
- Use the approved account email.
- Use the normal password recovery path once.
- Capture the exact visible error.
- If still blocked, open an Account & Access ticket.
Confirm the Account Context, then Identify the Exact Missing Page or Action
- Confirm account/organisation context.
- Identify the exact missing page/menu/action.
- State the user’s approved responsibility.
- Do not use another person’s privileged account as a workaround.
Compare Approved Responsibility with Visible Capability
Support can investigate a mismatch. It should not bypass the organisation’s approval process for higher privileges.
Separate Application Submitted, Approved Account and Function Enabled
- Confirm application state.
- Confirm approval is complete.
- Confirm the account can sign in.
- Confirm required function is enabled for the approved configuration.
- If states disagree, open one Account & Access ticket.
Build the Ticket around the Access State—not around the Password
Support needs to know who should have access, what they should be able to do and what the system is actually showing.
Good ticket

Current state: User can sign in but Item Intake is not visible
Evidence: Sanitised dashboard screenshot attached
Bad ticket

Never include a password, OTP or secret authentication material.
