Product SKU

When a product is created in the Byte Technology Dashboard, an internal SKU number is generated.

This number is the first set of digits encoded in each RFID tag.

This field is NOT editable. 

Tag type

Byte Technology supports a total of 4 different types of tags. The tags are of different sizes and are meant for different types of products. 

Note: Drink tags and Metal Safe tags are both Flag tags and have the same appearance.

Printed text on tag 

SKU Number is in grey as it is not customizable and will be printed on every tag for every product. 

The open text field box is to customize what name of the product you wish to have printed on this particular tag order. This is helpful if you have rotating variations of a product but want to use the same SKU number but need the text on the tag to show the current variation. 

Max limit of 32 Characters
