What SKU Manager does

Keep your product codes organized at scale

SKU Manager helps you manage the product identifiers your store depends on every day. Whether you need to clean up inconsistent SKUs, update barcodes in bulk, generate new values for new variants, or check your catalog for duplicates, SKU Manager is built to make those jobs faster and easier.

Main capabilities

Manage and update product SKUs

SKU Manager gives you one place to work with the SKU values attached to your products and variants. This makes it easier to keep your catalog consistent, readable, and aligned with the way your business tracks inventory.

  • Review and maintain SKU values across your store

  • Correct outdated or inconsistent SKU formats

  • Standardize product identifiers as your catalog grows

Manage barcodes alongside SKUs

In addition to SKUs, SKU Manager also helps you work with barcodes. This is useful when you need both values to stay accurate and aligned across large numbers of products.

  • Update barcode values in bulk

  • Keep barcode data organized across variants

  • Maintain cleaner product records without manual editing

Make bulk changes instead of editing one by one

When you need to update many products at once, SKU Manager helps you apply changes in bulk. This saves time and reduces the risk of inconsistent manual edits.

  • Change existing SKUs across many items in one action

  • Change existing barcodes in bulk

  • Apply large-scale updates more efficiently during catalog cleanups or reorganization

Create new values by replacing old ones

If you are moving from one naming pattern to another, SKU Manager can help you create new SKUs or barcodes by replacing existing values. This is useful when part of a code needs to change while the rest follows a predictable pattern.

  • Replace old text or number patterns with new ones

  • Create updated SKU or barcode values from existing data

  • Roll out naming changes more consistently across your catalog

Automatically generate SKUs for new variants

SKU Manager can automatically generate SKUs based on your rules when new variants are added to a product. This helps merchants maintain a consistent structure without having to assign each new SKU manually.

  • Set rules for how new SKUs should be created

  • Apply a consistent format to future variants

  • Reduce manual work as new products and options are introduced

Automatic SKU generation is especially helpful when your team adds new variants regularly and wants every new SKU to follow the same format from the start.

Find duplicate SKUs or barcodes across your store

Duplicate product identifiers can create confusion and make catalog maintenance harder. SKU Manager can check your store for duplicate SKUs or barcodes so you can find and fix issues before they cause bigger problems.

  • Scan the full store for duplicate SKU values

  • Identify duplicate barcode values

  • Spot catalog conflicts that may need cleanup

Undo recent changes when needed

If you make an update and need to reverse it, SKU Manager lets you undo recent change sets. This gives you a safety net when working on bulk edits.

You can undo the most recent 3 change sets unless you save them. Saved change sets are not overwritten by newer changes.

Why merchants use SKU Manager

  • Save time: Make large updates without editing products individually.

  • Improve consistency: Keep SKU and barcode formats aligned across your catalog.

  • Reduce errors: Use bulk updates and duplicate checks to catch issues sooner.

  • Support growth: Automatically generate new SKUs as your product range expands.

  • Work with confidence: Undo recent changes if you need to roll back an update.

A strong starting point for catalog control

SKU Manager is designed for merchants who want better control over product identifiers across their store. From everyday cleanup to large-scale changes, it helps you maintain accurate SKUs and barcodes, apply updates in bulk, and keep new variant data consistent as your catalog evolves.
