Yes, you can set a SKU pattern and let Zoho Commerce auto-generate SKUs for all variants at once. To do this:

1.  Go to **Items** and open or create an item with variants.
2.  In the variants table, click **Generate SKU**.
3.  In the **Generate SKU - Variant** pop-up, configure the pattern using the following options for each row:
    *   **Select Attribute** - Choose a source for the SKU segment, such as Product Name, a variant attribute (e.g. Size), or Custom Text.
    *   **Show** - Set whether to use the First or Last N characters of the value.
    *   **Letter Case** - Set Upper Case, or Lower Case. It is optional.
    *   **Separator** - Add a character (e.g. `-`) between segments.
4.  Use **\+ Add Attribute** to chain multiple segments together.
5.  Check the **SKU Preview** at the bottom to confirm the generated format before applying.
6.  Click **Generate SKU** to apply the pattern to all variants.
