SKU Stock Sync DocsDoes it change SKUs?
SKU Stock Sync uses existing Shopify SKUs for grouping but does not create, edit, format, or rename them.
The app doesn't change SKUs on its own. It never automatically creates, edits, formats, or renames a SKU in the background.
The app uses your existing Shopify SKUs to decide which variants should be grouped together. It only changes a SKU when you tell it to.
You can trigger a SKU change yourself from the Groups page using Change SKU. That writes the new value straight to the Shopify variant, the same as editing it in Shopify admin, just from inside the app. See Changing a group's SKU from the app.
Info: However you change a SKU (in Shopify or from the Groups page), SKU Stock Sync needs to detect and prepare the updated grouping before those variants can sync correctly.
If two variants should not share inventory, make sure they do not use the same SKU at the same Shopify location.
Can another inventory app conflict with SKU Stock Sync?
Other inventory tools can conflict with SKU Stock Sync when both systems update the same inventory quantities.
Does it create products or variants?
SKU Stock Sync does not create products or variants; it works with existing Shopify inventory, SKUs, variants, and locations.
