To assign a sku to a new product, follow the rules below
1. The first two digits of the sku should be the prefix/brand code of the kit. The discipline should be used to determine the appropriate prefix using the table below
| Discipline Code | Description | SKU Prefix |
|---|---|---|
| AP KITS | Anatomy and Physiology Kits | SI |
| BIOLOGY KITS | Biology Kits | SI |
| CHEM KITS | Chemistry Kits | LP |
| EARTH SCIENCE | Earth Science Kits | SI |
| ES ENV KITS | Environmental Kits | SI |
| FORENSICS KITS | Forensic Science Kits | SI |
| GENETICS KITS | Genetics Kits | SI |
| GEO KITS | Geology Kits | SI |
| HUMAN BIOLOGY KITS | Human Biology Kits | SI |
| MICRO KITS | Microbiology Kits | SI |
| NURSING KITS | Nursing Kits | SI |
| PHARMACY KITS | Pharmacy Kits | SI |
| PHYSICAL SCIENCE KIT | Physical Science Kits | SI |
| PHYSICS KITS | Physics Kits | LP |
2. The number series of the sku is determined by the product type.
- If the kit is an experiment-based kit, it will go in the standard series of numbers.
- If the kit is a digital only kit, it will go in the 7 series of numbers.
- If the kit is materials only, it will go in the 9 series of numbers.
Reference the below grid to choose the correct number in the SKU assignment spreadsheet.
Select the next available number on the appropriate tab of the sheet and type your name (and school) in the field next to it to claim the number.
| Brand | Type | Number Series | Tab |
|---|---|---|---|
HOL |
Experiments | Standard Series | HOL (LP) SKU’s |
| Digital Only | 7 Series | HOL (LP) All Digital Sku’s | |
| Materials Only | 9 Series | HOL (LP) Materials Only Sku’s | |
SI |
Experiments | Standard Series | SI SKU’s |
| Digital Only | 7 Series | SI Digital Only SKUs | |
| Materials Only | 9 Series | SI Materials Only SKUs |
3. Use the table below to assign the discipline code to the kit.
Each discipline has its own 2 letter identifier. Chemistry has 2 sub-disciplines that have unique identifiers.
| Description | Code |
|---|---|
| Anatomy and Physiology Kits | AP |
| Biology Kits | BK |
| Chemistry Kits | CK |
| Earth Science Kits | EA |
| Environmental Kits | ES |
| Forensic Science Kits | FS |
| Genetics Kits | GN |
| General Organic Biochemistry | GB |
| Geology Kits | GK |
| Human Biology Kits | HB |
| Microbiology Kits | MB |
| Nursing Kits | NK |
| Organic Chemistry | OC |
| Pharmacy Kits | PH |
| Physical Science Kits | PS |
| Physics Kits | PK |
4. All new kits start with 01 as the version
All new SKUs must contain all 4 parts as outlined in this article i.e SI-10000-AP-01
5. For a consumable-refill kit, the prefix will be SC. The rest of the sku will match the full kit sku, the number, discipline and version.
For example, if the full kit sku is SI-20000-PH-01, the consumable kit will be SC-20000-PH-01.
