add unique number in short way

Question

hi iam a stock dealer for each and every product i have to use unique number. Per month iam adding minimum 3000 products so its too difficult to add unique number in product tag. kindly help in providing some short cuts to add unique number in simply way

Answer 1

I operated a retail store for 22 years, and I faced a similar situation.

 

My solution was to start with the number 000001, and sequentially number the products. So, I had 000002, 000003, and so on.

 

I used a one letter suffix to organize the products into categories. As an example, 000001A, and so on.

Naturally, I maintained lists by category.

 

In that way, each number was unique, and the system was simple.
