Does adding an SKU link the original product in dropshipping?

If I add an SKU to a product in my store, does that automatically link the product from where it originally came from or not? I’m asking for drop-shipping.

Hi, @morethanaskirt !

This is Rio from the Shopify Community Team.

That’s a great question. Adding a SKU to your product won’t link where the product originally came from. If the SKU number contains a location you can edit the SKU to remove that. Someone cannot track the order via a SKU number a tracking number would be needed.

Hope this helps.
