A SKU is an identifier that is used by merchants to permit
the systematic tracking of products and services offered to
customers. Usage of the SKU system is rooted in the drill
down method, pertaining to data management. Each SKU is attached
to an item, variant, product line, bundle, service, fee or
attachment. Successful inventory management systems assign
a unique SKU for each product and also for its variants. For
example, different models of product, or different bundled
packages including a number of related products, have independent
SKUs.
