Yikes! How many SKUs does this product have?! And the prices are all different? Don't worry... SKU generator is here.

We all know the products that instill the greatest fear for uniform sales organizations... a single product that comes in multiple colors and sizes, with price shifts for color and oversizes.

The UniformMarket Store System has a SKU generator that tackles this exact problem. By selecting the right options, a product in the UMSS system can be entered very quickly (compared to most software systems, that is).

You can follow an example from the pictures (follow link to see bigger picture if desired). The product is available in white, blue and pink. White will use the base price of $26.30, but blue will increase the price by $1.00 and Pink by $2.00. The product will come in small through 4X-large, with 2X adding 10% to the price, 3X adding 15% and 4X adding 25% to the base price (per color).

Here are the specific steps to set generate the SKUs at the desired prices.

USING THE SKU GENERATOR:

1. Add a new product (if you haven't already) by clicking ADD NEW in the UMSS Admin

2. Enter all appropriate GENERAL DATA you care to:

• Remember to also select the product options upon which your SKUs will be built (color, alpha size, neck, sleeve, waist, etc).
• This is where you also enter a BASE PRICE from which all the other price adjustments will be calculated.

3. Click the CREATE SKUs tab along the top of the product screen.

4. Select the options from each column that apply to that product.

• If the column is COLOR, then check the boxes of the colors the product comes in.
• If the column is ALPHA SIZE then select the sizes the product is available in.

5. Enter your price adjustments

• If the product is available in multiple colors and some colors bump the price, then use the PRICE ADJUSTMENT columns to instruct the SKU GENERATOR how to calculate the price adjustment. You can set it to replace the entire price, add a specific amount to the base price or add a percentage of the base price to the price.
• If the product is available in multiple size configurations and some sizes bump the price, then use the PRICE ADJUSTMENT columns to instruct the SKU GENERATOR accordingly.

6. Click SHOW. This will generate a preview of all the possible SKUs the system can generate based on your selection of options (colors and sizes, for example). You will see the system calculated each SKUs price for you according to your instructions.

7. Select the SKUs you actually wish to create by clicking on select boxes in first column Or, if you want all of them use the select all check box at the top of the column

8. Click CREATE. This is last step and the point at which SKUs will actually be generated and moved to the GENERAL SKUs area of the product.

Don't panic though. You can always go back, delete SKUs and start over!
