Product Architecture

Webround uses a structured approach: Products → Variants → SKUs.

The SKU is the actual sellable unit held in your warehouse; it is the fundamental element that tracks availability and the final price. To learn more about this hierarchy and how entities are connected, see the Introduction to Commerce Entities section.


How to create an SKU

An SKU represents the final combination of a product (e.g., T-shirt -> Blue -> Size L).

  1. Access your store.
  2. Select the product and the reference variant.
  3. Click on Add SKU.
  4. Enter the unique identification code and save.
Webround Commerce Products

Choose a product and click on its name to navigate the Product -> Variant -> SKU hierarchy.

At this point, you have navigated from the Product to its Variants.

tip

A Product always has at least one Variant.

The first Variant is created automatically.

Now, using the same mechanism, access the SKUs from the Variant of interest.

Choose the variant of interest to navigate the Variant -> SKU hierarchy.

tip

A variant does not necessarily need an SKU. However, SKUs are required to set prices, stock availability, and start Checkout sessions.

Now you are ready to create an SKU
