Introduction
We have launched a new feature that enhances the way you manage SKU information in the sku master. This update includes the addition of a new column called "attribs," allowing you to store additional details for your items or SKUs efficiently. This support article will guide you through the recent changes, business logic, and how to use the new functionality seamlessly.
Understanding SKU Attributes
The "attribs" column now stores information in a JSON format, offering flexibility for diverse data storage. Here's an example of how this data will be represented on the UI.
Business Logic
A new company-level setting, "SKU Attributes Setup," has been introduced under inventory section, to control which additional information can be added to the sku attribs.
UI Representation
Adding SKU Allowed Attribs Setting:
Navigate to the "SKU Attributes Setup" page.
Look for the new section SKU Attributes Setup.
Add up to 15 attributes with the specified data types.
Note: Once an attribute is added, user cannot delete or edit due to potential existing SKU data. A warning message will notify you of this restriction.
JSON
{ "sku_allowed_attribs": [ { "name": "Manufacturing date", "type": "date" }, { "name": "HSC Code Title", "type": "string" }, { "name": "Custom Title", "type": "string" } ] }
Show/Save SKU Attribs for Each SKU:
Access the "skus/view" page.
Find the toggle button near the headline.
Input values for the required attributes.
The system runs validations based on the data type provided in the company setting.
Save the "attribs" with the latest information.
JSON
{ "Manufacturing date": "2023-12-01", "HSC Code Title": "KURTA LONG- H.S.C. 62113900 Cotton and MMF (Blended) (size-36-44)", "Custom Title": "Custom title can be added here" }
Important Note:
If the "SKU Attributes Setup" setting is not found, the attributes section will not be displayed on the SKU detail view page.
