SPU：Standard Product Unit
SKU：Stock Keeping Unit
barcode：
Internal Reference：
We have set up barcodes and internal references, why don't they correspond to SPU and SKU?

I conducted a test:

During sales, both barcode input and internal reference will result in variant selection.

If the barcode corresponds to SPU and the internal reference corresponds to SKU, then the variant selection should pop up when entering SPU, and the variant should be automatically selected when entering SKU.

When dealing with large amounts of inventory, flexible selection of SPU and SKU can be used for processing.

Of course, using the same barcode and different internal references for variants is also very helpful for product analysis.

If a separate variant uses a separate barcode, it seems that internal references are meaningless.

Barcodes are not allowed to be duplicated, and internal references are not allowed to be duplicated. So the barcode and internal reference will have a one-to-one relationship. Is it not very meaningful, just for easy interpretation?

If barcodes and internal references can achieve a one to many relationship. Internal references will have a greater impact.

Welcome to continue the discussion.
