The Ghost Sku feature enables sellers to use multiple skus for the same product and draw down inventory from one source regardless of the sku ordered. Two steps are required to use this feature:
- Create a unique price list
- Add sku override information
Step 1: Create a new price list
To create a new price list, go to the Products tab on the left hand bar and select Price Lists from the drop-down options. This will open the Price Lists section. Next select the + New Price List button on the top right hand side.
Next, name the price list and if you would like include a short description and then save.
Step 2: Add Sku override information
For any products that have a secondary sku, add in the unique price point in the newly created price list (located on the Product > Price Lists tab), and then add in the Sku associated with that price. Note: it is not necessary to adding pricing or Sku overrides for every product.
In this example, selling Sku 8723476 or selling Sku 545454 will both draw down inventory of Pinot Noir 2019 - 750mL Bottles.
How to use Sku override Sku and Price List
When you want to use a sku override, you will start the regular order flow and then change the price list to the price list you created for your sku overrides (in the example created above, I would switch to by BTG price list).
Upon confirming the new price list selection, the products will update below, to include the sku overide and appropriate prices. Selecting any products from with sku overrides will draw down inventory from the primary (associated) sku within the warehouse the order is being fulfilled from (if the warehouse is inventory controlled).
