Enable article number generator


To avoid having to manually enter article numbers each time, activate the "Article Number Generator." To do this, click on "Settings" in the main menu of the dashboard. Then navigate to "Items" in the submenu and activate the toggle at the top right of the screen: "The article number generator is activated."


Next, decide which components your article numbers should consist of by dragging the blue blocks with the desired values into the blue-bordered field.


For example, if you want your article numbers to consist of a sequential number and always display the corresponding product group number, drag the blocks "Sequence" and "Product Group" into the blue-bordered field.


Note: We recommend using this feature in the system only if you create articles manually and do not work with an imported article list.
