A SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) is the internal product identifier that makes inventory management, order fulfilment, and sales reporting possible at scale. Without a consistent SKU structure, your inventory system becomes a mess of ad-hoc names that vary by person, platform, and time. The Utility Spark SKU Generator creates structured, consistent SKU codes from your product attributes: category prefix, product name abbreviation, variant (size, colour, pack size), and sequential number. Define your SKU format once, enter your product attributes, and generate a batch of correctly formatted SKU codes for your entire catalogue.
