What are the different types of references?
There are several types of references:
- Reference: your own internal reference. It may refer to a number, or a reference to its location in your inventory, or its supplier, or anything that makes it unique. This reference is optional.
- ISBN: the international identification of books and the various editions of a book. This reference is mandatory if you are selling books.
- Barcode EAN-13 or JAN: the 13-digit international number of the product, used worldwide to identify it. You can use either an EAN-13 or a JAN, the identification number specific to Japan but compatible with the international EAN.
- UPC barcode: a 12-digit barcode generally used in North America, the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.
| 💡 If you wish to distribute your products on marketplaces such as Amazon or eBay, EAN-13 codes are mandatory. |
How does one add a reference to the product sheet?
To add one of these references to your products, open the product sheet and navigate to the "Options" tab. The "State and References" section allows you to provide the references for your product.
