Creating accounts for departments - not individuals

Does anyone know how to create seller central accounts without linking them to an individual via passport or drivers licence?

Our warehouse team has about 20 people in it, working 7 days per week and about 18 hours per day. Most of these staff are temps, and even the permanent ones move around the business pretty freely.

I'd like to create a "despatches" account, with a dedicated phone number for OTP and locked down permissions, so that any time of the day or night, a worker can access the terminal without needing the manager's mobile to get the OTP.

Does anyone know whether this is possible, or whether there is a mechanism for allowing accounts to be used by multiple people in an official capacity? The alternative is trying to get 20 temporary workers to bring in a passport or drivers licence (which a lot don't have), and waiting for each one to be approved before they can start work, only to go through the process again with 5 new guys every week, as they replace ones who dropped out. I'll end up with hundreds of accounts for staff who will never be seen again, which seems crazy.

Really haven't a clue, but this sounds like a very complex procedure, and somehow not sure it would work with Amazon ??! - but who knows ?

I don't believe that it is possible.

I suggest you look into a 3rd party application to achieve what you are trying to do as these are more flexible.

While a secondary user account would still need to be linked to an individual when created - in theory, you could allow that login to be used by others (if for example there was a shared laptop in the warehouse).

OTP can also be achieved via an authenticator app - so doesn't require an SMS to a managers mobile.

When using OTP, you can setup up several authenticator devices for one amazon login. You can even look up the chrome plugin 'authenticator'

As Disenchanted says as well - third party apps could resolve this where they can pull your amazon orders in and can be managed from the 3rd party app.
