Give each product a short, readable code your staff can understand at a glance. Add your variants and get a code for every combination in one click.
Each part of the SKU is shortened to the same number of letters, in capitals, with accents and symbols removed. Variant values are combined in every possible way, and an optional running number keeps each code unique.
Example: category T-shirt, brand Nike, colours Red and Blue, sizes M and L gives TSH-NIK-RED-M-001, TSH-NIK-RED-L-002, TSH-NIK-BLU-M-003 and TSH-NIK-BLU-L-004.
The generator checks every code against these rules.
Up Stock gives every item its own SKU for barcode scanning, records the size or colour sold on each order line, and keeps the stock of every store up to date.
A stock keeping unit is your own code for one specific product, down to its size and colour. Unlike a manufacturer's barcode, you choose it, so it can describe the item in a way your team understands.
No, but they work together. The SKU is the code, and a barcode is one way to print it. You can print your SKUs as Code 128 barcodes with the free barcode generator.
No. Prices change and the SKU should not. Use parts that never change for that product, such as category, brand, model, size and colour.
Add each attribute as its own list of values. The generator builds one SKU per combination, so a shirt in 3 colours and 4 sizes gets 12 codes.
