If you sell products under the FBP scheme, all products must have barcodes. You can use:
- your own barcodes. For example, provided by the manufacturer;
- unique Ozon barcodes. You can generate them in your personal account or when creating your first warehouse supply.
Why we use barcodes #
If the products that you sell under the FBP scheme don’t have barcodes:
- you can’t add them to the supply request;
- they can’t be accepted at the warehouse if the barcodes on the product and in the personal account are different. Some partners offer relabeling service. They can print labels with the correct barcode for extra charge. If there’s no such service, you have to take the products back.
If you sell under the realFBS scheme, you don’t have to add these barcodes. We still recommend you to specify it. It allows you to switch the scheme to FBP or sell under both at any moment.
Rules for adding barcodes:
- In one sellerID account you must have different barcodes for each product.
- If the sellerID accounts are different, the barcodes may be the same. The only exception is JDL warehouses. If two sellers with the same business license add the same barcodes for their products, JDL doesn’t approve the supply request.
Add barcodes in your personal account #
For all products #
- Open the Products → Update barcodes section.
- Open the Without barcode tab.
- You can:
- generate barcodes automatically for the entire list: click Generate for all and confirm the action;
- specify the barcodes manually: click Add next to the product.
For one product #
Open the Products → Update barcodes section. In the All products tab, select a product and click Add next to it. Choose whether you want to specify the barcode manually or generate it. Click Save.
Add barcodes when creating a supply #
- In the FBP → Create supply request section, select the storage warehouse and add products you want to supply.
- If some of the products don’t have barcodes, you’ll see an error. You can view the error reasons and a link to add barcodes in the notification.
Barcode generation #
The system creates a unique barcode for each product. It consists of the OZN characters and the Ozon SKU ID product identifier.
Example: If Ozon SKU ID is 1234567891, The system generates the barcode OZN1234567891.
Generating barcodes takes some time. Once it’s complete, you can view the generated code in an OZNXXXXXXXXXX form.
View the product barcodes list #
Open the Products → Update barcodes or Products → Product list pages and click on the barcode. You’ll see the list of barcodes for this product.
Delete and change barcodes #
You can delete or change barcodes that are on verification or created less than 48 hours ago:
- Open the Products → Update barcodes or Products → Product list pages.
- Select a product and click on its barcode.
- In the window to the right of the barcode, click
and select an action.
You can’t delete or edit the barcodes if:
- products were sold under the FBP scheme and ran out of stock less than 6 months ago;
- barcodes were generated automatically. Example of such a barcode: OZN32322342.
Barcode content #
If you have several active barcodes linked in your personal account, the warehouse accepts your products with any of them.
The printed barcode contains:
- the code you specified or generated by Ozon;
- product name.
Download barcodes #
-
Open the Products → Update barcodes or Products → Product list sections. In the product row, click
and select Download PDF.
-
Select the printer type. For a barcode printer, the system adapts the size of the barcodes to the ribbon printing. For an office printer, specify the number of copies and size. It depends on the paper format, the manufacturer’s barcode, and the product itself. Size options:
- small: 30:20 mm;
- medium: 43:25 mm;
- large: 58:40 mm.
- Click Download PDF. Stick printed barcodes on each product. If barcodes are printed on an office printer, cut them out manually before sticking.
Stick barcodes #
Stick a barcode on each product while preparing for the supply. If the product needs additional packaging, stick on it the same product barcode form your personal account.
The barcode on the product must:
- be a single copy, easy visible and not cover expiration dates and product description;
- completely cover the old barcode and be readable. For example, it should not be crumpled.
In all cases, the barcode on the product must match the barcode in the personal account at the time of supply.
