SKU (stockkeeping unit, sometimes spelled "Sku")
is an identification, usually alphanumeric, of a particular product that
allows it to be tracked for inventory purposes. Typically, an SKU (pronounced
with the individual letters or as SKYEW) is associated with any purchasable
item in a store or catalog. For example, a woman's blouse of a particular
style and size might have an SKU of "3726-8," meaning "Style
3726, size 8." The SKU identification for a product may or may not
be made visible to a customer. SKU numbers can sometimes be seen in online
e-commerce sites.
