A product code or SKU (Stock Keeping Unit) is the unique code made up of either numbers or letters that you use to make reference to your products.  

Your supplier may have a different code and your customers may assign their own codes.  But if they have no code to start with then they cannot cross reference your new products with the products that you gave them last time on your data spreadsheet.

This can create lots of problems.  Each of the products ona website and also on internal databases have a specific product code. Each of these products has it’s own page on a website that has it’s own backlinks and is used by sales staff to do quotations.

I have added this section as an ongoing list that we will build into over time. The reason for this is so that we can build additional markers and flags that signify certain things.

If you look below you will see the kind of flags we are aiming for. 

Showing upto date stock levels online is hugely useful.  It saves masses of time and makes you look highly professional.  If you can make your system output a stock report as a csv file we can import it automatically.

I have outlined the format that ProMart will use when outputting the stock data.  Please note the stock level data is exported every 30 mins rather than once a day.  This will give us greater accuracy without having a permanent server process running.
