Many customers change their SKU and it's not really supported in Configured Commerce
We have several client which rename SKUs in their ERP instead of deactivating and create a new one for multiple reasons. Recently one of them ask us to create a "Master UID" for them to map and update our products, but this field is internal only and not visible to the customers, so it's an internal ID used between the ERP, PIM and Configured Commerce to update the product.
Can such a field be added and could be used as an alternate natural key to simplify everything? Seems to us like a common issue.
Thank you for submitting this request! I can confirm that this would be a significant architectural change to implement and is not something we would be able to add to the roadmap at this time.
We can leave this enhancement request open in order to receive related feedback, but we do not have plans to add this feature at this time.
