If you are running a WooCommerce store, it is important to keep your product information up to date. This includes the SKU (stock keeping unit) for each product.
The SKU is a unique identifier that is used to track inventory and can be used for barcodes and other labeling purposes. If you need to update the SKU for a product, there are a few different ways to do it.
One way to update the SKU for a product is to use the Bulk Edit tool. This can be found in the WordPress admin under Products > All Products.
From there, select the products that you need to update and then select Edit from the Bulk Actions dropdown. On the next screen, you will see an option to update the SKU. Simply enter the new SKU information and then click Update.
Another way to update product SKUs is to use the WooCommerce Product CSV Import Suite. This tool allows you to export your products into a CSV file and then make changes to that file before importing it back into your store. To use this method, first install and activate the plugin. Then, go to Products > Import/Export and click on Export Products.
On the next screen, select which products you want to export and then choose CSV from the Export Method dropdown. Once the export is complete, open the CSV file in a text editor and make your changes. Be sure to save your changes and then go back to the plugin page and click on Import Products. Choose your updated CSV file and click Upload file and import.
Updating product SKUs is a fairly simple process, but it is important to make sure that your products are always up-to-date in your store. By using one of these methods, you can easily update the SKUs for your products as needed.
The best way to update SKUs in WooCommerce is by using either the Bulk Edit tool or by exporting and importing via a CSV file using the WooCommerce Product CSV Import Suite. These methods allow you to easily update multiple products at once without having to individually edit each product page.
