Overview

Now users can update the SKU attributes mentioned below in product masters from the UI screen. This is particularly useful when there is a change in product metadata.

The following SKU attributes can be updated:

  • Barcode

  • isUOM

  • isVirtual

  • isSerialCoderequired

However, it's important to note that the system will run necessary validations when users upload a file to update these attributes from the UI screen. If the necessary validations are not passed by the user input file, the system will fail the request. For more details about these validations, please refer to Implementation details section.

Implementation details

SKU attribute details that can be updated by users

  1. Product Barcode: Users can modify or change the scannable entity present physically on a product at any given point of time and update it in the product masters.

  2. isUOM attribute: This attribute allows users to define if a product is available in different Units of Measurement (UOMs) within the system.

  3. isVirtual attribute: Users can use this attribute to indicate whether a product should be bundled with other products and if its inventory should be synced with external systems.

  4. isSerialCoderequired attribute: This attribute allows users to specify if external serial codes should be allowed for this particular product, which helps ease inwarding process.
