If I make an error and run out of a Merchant filled item I use Multichannel fulfillment to get the item to my customer. It's not cost effective but it gets the job done in a pinch.

That is called "Multi-Channel Fulfillment" and you find it like anything else in the helppages:

Although, I don't know if you can put somewhere the "FBM order ID" and if the FBM shipping info will update automatically. You have to read through.

Hi @Seller_PbkECszcbUdW5, one of my teammates recently answered this question on a different thread.
"A quick order form allows you to place a single ship order or hold order against available FBA inventory by entering your customer's shipping address, items, and shipping speed.MCF’s bulk orders feature allows you to create and cancel multiple orders at once by uploading a completed template.
In the quick order form, if you select Place order, you'll create a ship order that will be processed and shipped within 2 business days for Standard speed and next business day for Expedited and Priority speeds.
If you select Create hold order, an order will be planned and placed on hold, reserving your inventory. These hold orders must be activated on the MCF order details page to initiate the shipment. The order will only meet the expected delivery date if activated before the expected ship date. If not, the expected delivery date will not update and the order will deliver at a later date. If the hold order isn't activated within 14 days, the order will be canceled automatically.
To activate a hold order, follow these steps:
- Go to Manage Orders.
- In the search box, enter the MCF order ID and click Search.
- Click the order ID link in the Order details column.
- On the MCF order details page, click Ship this order. "
Let me know if this helps.
