Product Numbering System

A product numbering system is a structured method used to uniquely identify and categorize products within an inventory. This system simplifies product tracking, improves inventory management, and ensures consistency in labeling and identification across different platforms and departments.

The components of a product number typically consist of several segments, each serving a specific purpose. These segments may include information such as product type, size, color, or manufacturing location. A well-organized numbering system helps reduce errors and confusion during production, shipping, and sales processes.

Key Considerations: When creating a product numbering system, ensure that it is scalable and adaptable to future changes, such as new product lines or variations.

• Product Category
• Size and Specifications
• Version Number
• Manufacturing Date
• Geographical Code

For example, a basic product number might look like this: PRD-0023-XL-2023-USA, where each section represents a unique aspect of the product.
