What is a SKU?

A Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) is a unique identifier assigned to each product for inventory tracking. Unlike UPC barcodes (which are universal), SKUs are internal codes that you define based on your own product attributes.

How LabelFlow generates SKUs

  • Derives readable abbreviations from product titles (e.g., "Blue T-Shirt" → BLU-TSH)
  • Optionally prepends category and series prefixes
  • Appends a sequential, zero-padded number
  • Guarantees uniqueness within each prefix sequence

Best Practices

  • Keep SKUs short — 8-15 characters is ideal
  • Use consistent separators (dashes or underscores)
  • Start with category/type for easy sorting
  • Avoid ambiguous characters (O/0, I/1/l)
