Problems with multi-pack variations
After pulling my hair for a few nights, I finally created a family frame for multi-pack variations.
My setup is: pack of 1 (original listing), pack of 2, 3, and 4. All the children are sharing the same ASIN as pack of 1 (I tried UPC but it never worked) but different SKU's
However, when I changed the unit count, number of items, etc. for one of the children, it also changed the original pack of one listing to 4 items (pack of 1) for example.
Another problem is that with that setup, I need to send individual multi-pack shipments to FBA instead of having them to pick 2, 3, 4 items off the shelf of the 1-pack inventory. Is there a better way to set that up so FBA will only use my pack of 1 inventory for multi-pack orders?

The answer is no.
Amazon is not going to pick different numbers of pieces for you.
If you are selling a (3 pack) you need to send in pre made bundles of 3.
Each bundle will need its own Upc code.
Not all categories allow quantity as a variation theme.
If a customer wants 2 then they can simply pick 2 when ordering. No need for so many bundles. If you want to offer a discount when they buy more you can create a promotion for a % off “x” number of items

If this is the case, then you don't have individual listings for each child variation, you have multiple offers on the same product. Each product gets its own unique ASIN, they do not share them. It sounds like you tried using the ASIN of the existing listing as the product ID for the new ones, and that just won't work. Each product needs its own unique product ID.
You mentioned that you tried UPCs but they didn't work. Where did you get the UPCs from? Amazon only recognizes UPCs from GS1 as valid.
