SKUs and barcodes

Every size of every variant has its own SKU and barcode. Type them in, or let Tr3e create them from your own codes and your GS1 range.

#Where they live

Open a variant and its Manufacturing tab. The sizes table has a SKU and a Barcode for each size.

Tr3e warns you, without stopping you, when two sizes share a SKU or a barcode, or when a barcode's last digit isn't a valid check digit.

#Create SKUs

1. In Settings → General → SKUs, turn on Generate SKUs.
2. Give each colour and option a short Code, such as BLA for Black.

Tr3e builds each SKU from the product's Style ID, its codes and the size, such as ST1182-BLA-M.

For existing products:

• One product: ⋮ → Regenerate SKUs. You see every new SKU before you confirm. If nothing would change, Tr3e tells you every SKU is up to date.
• A whole collection: ⋮ → Generate missing SKUs.

A SKU someone typed by hand stays as it is.

#Create barcodes

1. In Settings → General → Barcodes, enter your GS1 company prefix, pick EAN-13 or UPC-A, and turn on Generate barcodes. The section shows how many barcodes your range has left.
2. On a product or a collection, choose ⋮ → Generate missing barcodes.

The same number is never given twice. When your GS1 range runs out, Tr3e tells you how many sizes were left without one.

#Who can

Owners and admins change the SKU and barcode settings. Owners, admins and members create them on products.
