2021-04 Support for Multiple Product Codes
about 3 years ago by ReadMe API
In Lightspeed Retail (X-Series), you are now able to add multiple barcodes that can be scanned alongside the SKU (Stock Keeping Unit). These can be captured on Standard and Variant products, and used for scanning/selling and inventory management without sacrificing the ability to identify products internally using a SKU.
Product codes are exposed on both the 2.0 and 3.0 Products APIs
You can manage these codes using our Product Actions API
Note that product codes must be unique per product. Multiple products cannot share the same code
Product codes are not validated for conformance with the schema for the specific code type
For more information on this product feature, please review the support article here

- Auto-generated: Lightspeed Retails (X-Series)'s automatically generated SKUs\
- Custom codes: any other code\
- EAN: European Article Number\
- ISBN: International Standard Book Number\
