After you add the option, you must select the Inventory checkbox under the Option tab in the Product, save that change and then you must click the GEAR dropdown (on the product's options tab) and choose "rebuild the combinations": where you can add unique ID and image.
The system used the Global Options values for the options, but making the options Inventory for the Product doesn't change the Global Option.
All my option IDs tracked as inventory imported into v4.1.4 - I just set up a new one from scratch in v4.

You can add product codes (sku's) through the option combinations functionality. I'm not sure why its done this way because it's confusing as it should just be under the option variants after the weight modifier:

Thank you for tip, just what I was looking for. May I ask some follow-up questions?
1. Is it correct that such a product code/sku is not indexed for Search? At least in my attempts, the search box can't find these codes.
2. If I would want to display these product codes/sku on the Product Page, it would require a custom code modification?
3. That these codes have to be entered manually, as importing them is not possible?
Thank you in advance
Regards,
Olof

You can add these product codes to product search words or use our free Search Improvements add-on
2. If I would want to display these product codes/sku on the Product Page, it would require a custom code modification?
If you select the combination with product code, default product code will be replaced with this value
3. That these codes have to be entered manually, as importing them is not possible?
Unfortunately, there is no ability to import option combinations in CS-Cart
Thanks

Thanks for the clear answers. Regarding Point 3 (no import possible on option combinations), you confirmed my fears.
It is also surprising because we see it as basic inventory management. For any type of business.
Even in the case of having only 1 Option (with several variants) so no 'option combinations' any inventory-carrying business has to have a SKU code per stocked item. All ERP systems are based on this basic principle. And with that comes the need for easy import/export to other systems
Strange that CS-Cart has given this basic inventory reality such a low priority:
1. SKU/Product code buried 2 layers down (Option Combination) and not in the Option Variants level
2. That even with only 1 option created, I still have to create fictional Option Combinations in order to enter the SKU/Product code per variant
3. No export/Import functionality
Sigh...

what does the Admin>import>product combinations do ? import combinations without SKU?
Oooooops. My fault, guys. Combinations are really supported by import / export. Example is here:
Product ID;Combination;Language;Product name;Combination code;Amount "12";"Color: Black/White/White, Size: Large";"en";"100g Pants";"U0012O5AF0";"50" "12";"Color: Black/White/White, Size: Medium";"en";"100g Pants";"U0012O5AF1";"55" "12";"Color: Black/White/White, Size: Small";"en";"100g Pants";"U0012O5AF2";"50" "12";"Color: Black/White/White, Size: X Large";"en";"100g Pants";"U0012O5AF3";"5" "12";"Color: Black/White/White, Size: XX Large";"en";"100g Pants";"U0012O5AF4";"0"
Sorry about that

Hi there. If Product Combinations can be imported, then where are you getting the Combination code from??? Seems to me this is generated by the system and the only way to get that code is to manually add a combination from the admin screen. So you are just showing how to import a file that was previously exported as opposed to importing brand new combinations.

You can create own code or export it from 3rd party system. I do not know your business processes

Sorry for reviving such an old thread, but is there a setting that is needed for this. When I input my custom code into the combination options it has no effect on the product code itself. I can have custom images with option combinations appear, but the code will have no effect.

It should work out of the box. If you use 3rd party theme, it can be a reason

Hi, I tried the import of SKUs and it works, the only problem I have is that it replaces the original product code visible on the site, in the cart and on the invoice with the code of an option, any chance to leave the original product code? I need option SKUs only for inventory update.

Yes, this is possible. But it will be required to change several php functions to do so

Hi,
You don't have to create multiple SKU's just to link varying attribute value like color /size.
You can directly link the select colour / select price to the same product
for example check the link below: https://www.shakedea...safety-shoe-dp1
You can so it in backend (products>Options>Add option.
Posted 12 June 2019 - 01:16 PM #20
Do you know of anyway to add unique sku's to the product options? For example if the product had 5 different color options, each option would have it's own unique sku/code. This would not be seen on the frontend. Is there a way to do this?
I set them in the product code from our erp system via the api
