Let&#8217;s learn about them in detail.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Creating SKU Numbers Manually<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is the step-by-step procedure for manually creating an SKU number:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>1- Define Stock Categories<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start by defining product categories based on the size of your inventory and the types of products you are dealing with.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The complexity of your SKU numbers will depend on the size of your inventory and the diversity of your products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For limited product ranges, SKU numbers can be relatively simple, whereas larger inventories may require more complex SKU structures.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>2- Start with a Top-Level Identifier<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose a top-level identifier for your product that reflects the broader product category, store department, or product supplier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This identifier should provide a quick overview of the product&#8217;s main classification.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>3- Assign Middle Numbers<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assign middle numbers to the product based on its sub-category.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consider attributes such as color, size, material, season, and gender, and assign numbers that accurately represent these features.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>4- Add a Sequential Number at the End<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, add a sequential number at the end of the SKU to distinguish the initial product from older ones with the same product features.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This sequential number is typically a 3-4 digit sequence that indicates the order in which products were purchased and processed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sequential numbers often follow the format of 000 or 0000, aiding in inventory management.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Example of Manual SKU Creation<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, a retail store has clothing items for men, women, and children.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, they can choose their top-level identifier to be WOM, MEN, or CH, representing women&#8217;s, men&#8217;s, and children&#8217;s clothing, respectively.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, they will add middle numbers or alphabets to represent product features such as product type (10 for shirts, 20 for jackets, 25 for jeans, 30 for shorts), season (S for summer, W for winter), and material type (CT or DM).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the end, it\u2019s time to finish it with the sequential number.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, according to this format, the MEN10SDM001 SKU number will represent men&#8217;s denim shirts for the summer seasons from the initially processed batch.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Creating SKU Numbers Automatically<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different tools available for SKU generation. Most inventory management software and point-of-sale systems have SKU generation in-built features.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Best Practices While Generating SKU Numbers<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are the best tips to create well-structured SKU numbers for your products:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aim for simplicity in SKU numbers while ensuring they contain necessary details.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with important product features in the middle part of the SKU.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid using symbols such as @, &amp;, *, %, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Avoid using letters that can be confused with numbers (e.g., O and 0).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don&#8217;t start SKUs with 0, as computer programs may perceive it as nothing.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensure all SKUs are unique. Reuse SKU numbers only for permanently discontinued products after removing them from your system.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regularly review and update the SKU system to accommodate new products and changing business needs.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>SKU vs UPC: What&#8217;s the Difference?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People often use SKU and UPC interchangeably; however, these two codes are quite different.
