How Do I Create a SKU in WooCommerce?

Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 1:52 pm

When you add a new product to your WooCommerce store, you will need to assign it a SKU (Stock Keeping Unit). This is a unique code that helps you keep track of your inventory and makes it easier to re-order products when necessary.

To create a SKU for a new product, log into your WooCommerce dashboard and go to Products > Add New. Enter the product name and other relevant information in the appropriate fields.

Then, scroll down to the Inventory section and enter a SKU code in the field labeled “SKU. ”

PRO TIP: If you are planning to create a SKU in WooCommerce, be aware that there is no standard way to do this. While WooCommerce does allow you to add a SKU to products, it is not automatically generated for you. This means that if you are not careful, you could end up with duplicate SKUs or SKUs that are not properly formatted.

Be sure to click the “Update” button at the bottom of the page to save your changes. Your new product will now have a SKU that you can use to track it in your inventory.

Creating a SKU for your WooCommerce products is a quick and easy process that can be completed in just a few steps. Be sure to enter a unique code for each product so that you can keep track of your inventory and re-order products as needed.
