Packs, barcodes & selling units

Configure loose units and packs so scans resolve the correct quantity without ambiguous duplicate SKUs.

Before you begin

A base SKU, verified pack quantities, prices and physical product barcodes.

Where to go

Products → Product packs → Product labels

Visible menus may vary with language, permissions, app version and shop configuration.

Follow these steps

  1. Set the base stock unit, such as piece, bottle or bag, then create a pack when one selling unit contains several base units.
  2. Enter the verified pack quantity and fixed pack price. Named packs do not use cross-SKU gift rules.
  3. Assign a shop-unique barcode to each selling unit, print labels and test both loose and pack scans on the real register.
  4. Run a test sale and confirm stock decreases by the pack quantity, not by one merely because the barcode was scanned once.

How to verify success

Each barcode selects the correct product/unit, pack price is correct and movements match base-unit quantity.

Limits & things to check

Do not use packs as color/size variants or alter pack quantity to compensate for a stock discrepancy.
