A Custom SKU Template automatically generates a SKU based on the format you've configured in AccelerList. Instead of manually typing a SKU for every item, AccelerList builds the SKU for you using the template rules you've defined.
๐ฆ Example Workflow
Let's say your custom SKU template is configured as:
{ASIN}-{CONDITION}-{SEQUENCE}When you scan or list a book:
ASIN:
0312862822Condition:
VG(Very Good)Sequence Number:
0001
AccelerList automatically generates:
0312862822-VG-0001
No manual SKU entry is required.
๐ท๏ธ Another Example
Template:
BOOK-{CONDITION}-{SEQUENCE}When listing a Used Good book:
BOOK-G-0001
Next item:
BOOK-G-0002
โ๏ธ When Is the SKU Created?
The custom SKU is usually generated automatically when:
you scan the item
add it to a batch
or create the listing
The final SKU is then sent to Amazon as part of the listing data.
๐ก Why Use a Custom SKU Template?
Many sellers use custom templates to:
identify item condition quickly
track inventory locations
include dates or acquisition sources
maintain a consistent inventory system
For example:
A12-LN-05262026-0001
could tell the seller:
Shelf Location: A12
Condition: Like New
Date Listed: May 26, 2026
Item Number: 0001
โ Summary
A Custom SKU Template automatically creates SKUs based on a predefined format whenever you list an item. This helps standardize inventory tracking and eliminates the need to manually create SKUs for every product.
