    This is a strange plugin. It does work as it say create SKU. Please update this plugin as it works well with your other plugin (barcode)

    I follow the instructions and it works! Is it possible to edit the SKU then export the list and then upload the spreadsheet? If you can add that, it will speed up the process and save time.
