Last updated on January 15, 2023 @ 7:24 pm

Do you have products with the same name but different sizes or colors? If so, you’ll need to create a unique SKU for each product variation.

Here’s how to do it in WooCommerce.

First, log into your WooCommerce store and go to Products > All Products. Then, find the product you want to edit and click Edit.

On the Edit Product page, scroll down to the Product Data section and select the Variations tab. Then, select the Add Variable product button.

PRO TIP: If you enable duplicate SKU in WooCommerce, it may cause problems with your inventory management. Make sure you understand the implications of this before enabling this setting.

On the next page, you’ll need to enter a few pieces of information for each variation, including:

  • SKU: A unique identifier for this product variation. This is typically a combination of the product name and some sort of identifier for the specific variation (e.g., size or color).
  • Regular Price: The standard price for this product variation.
  • Sale Price: The sale price for this product variation, if applicable.
  • Image: The image for this product variation. This is optional but can be helpful for customers.
  • Weight (lbs): The weight of this product variation in pounds.
  • Dimensions (in): The dimensions of this product variation in inches.
