Custom Product Creation

Custom product generation or "options to variations" engine designed to de-fragment your inventory

Overview


NicklPay’s Custom Product Creation module is designed for businesses that sell highly configurable or made-to-order products — enabling them to generate unique SKUs automatically from a base product and a combination of options.


This module is ideal for companies that offer customized items today but plan to stock or resell those same configurations in the future. By turning every custom order into a structurally consistent, inventory-ready SKU, NicklPay creates operational continuity between customization, manufacturing, stocking, and selling.


Whether you produce apparel with size/color/print combinations, promotional products with artwork variations, equipment packages with optional add-ons, or specialized kits built from components, NicklPay handles the entire SKU creation logic with precision and scalability.


Instead of manually creating new SKUs or losing track of custom variations, NicklPay ensures every possible configuration is cataloged, traceable, and ready for inventory movement — all automatically.


Key Features


Automatic SKU Generation

  • Artwork or print

  • Add-on components

  • Packaging type

Supports Any Configuration Complexity


NicklPay adapts to multi-layered or multi-dimensional products, including:

  • Fireworks Packs: Base kit × Add-ons × Safety packaging

  • Furniture: Wood type × Finish × Hardware

  • Equipment rentals: Base item × Accessory kit × Service option

Ensuring accuracy from design → production → delivery.


How It Works


  1. Create a Base Product:
    Start with the core item that all variants will derive from.

  2. Add Options & Attributes:
    Define all customizable fields — size, color, material, artwork, components, etc.

  3. Set Rules:
    Assign how each option affects pricing, availability, or manufacturing requirements.

  4. Generate SKUs Automatically:
    NicklPay produces unique SKUs for every valid combination.

  5. Publish or Stock Variants:
    Add them to inventory, catalogs, POS, or wholesale price lists.

  6. Sell, Reorder, or Produce:
    Variants flow naturally into production, replenishment, or fulfillment workflows.


Benefits

    No more spreadsheets, SKU collisions, or inconsistent naming.

  • Perfect for Custom-to-Stock Pipelines
    Variants created for one customer can later become stocked items.

    Clear variant data reduces manufacturing or fulfillment mistakes.

  • Speeds Up Sales & Quoting
    Sales teams can configure products in seconds.

  • Protects Data Integrity
    All SKUs follow structured naming and metadata rules.

  • Highly Scalable
    Works for both low-volume bespoke items and high-volume mass customization.

  • Ideal for Many Industries
    Apparel, promotional products, equipment rentals, printing, manufacturing, fireworks bundles/kits, packaging, and more.
