Valid Tracking Rate (VTR) <95% sits under Performance Metric Appeals, a family of issues Amazon reviews when evaluating seller performance, catalog integrity, and buyer experience. When Seller Performance or another Amazon team flags this issue, they look for evidence that you understand what triggered the notice, what you changed operationally, and how you will prevent a repeat.

These notices often precede listing restrictions or performance warnings on your account health dashboard, and unresolved issues can stack with other open violations.
