Add multiple barcodes to a product
A product has one SKU, but it can carry several barcodes. Klovio scans any of them and lands on the same product.
When you need this
- The manufacturer changed the barcode between production runs.
- The same item comes from two suppliers with different barcodes.
- You stock both an each-level barcode and a case barcode.
- You apply your own internal barcode alongside the manufacturer’s.
Add a barcode
- Open the product under Inventory → Products → All products and click Edit.
- In the Barcodes section, click Add barcode and enter the new code.
- Save.
Every barcode listed now resolves to this product when scanned during receiving, picking or counts.
Keep barcodes unique
A barcode can belong to only one product. If you try to add a code already used elsewhere, Klovio blocks it and tells you which product has it — a useful catch for catalog mistakes.
Tip: when a supplier’s barcode changes, add the new one rather than replacing the old. Stock already on the shelf still carries the old code.
