3 Sizes = 3 Barcodes
E.g. If you make yogurt, and that yogurt comes in three sizes
(100g, 500g, 750g) you need to identify 3 product variations.
3 Sizes x 3 Flavours = 9 Barcodes
E.g. If the yogurt comes in 3 flavours (vanilla, plain, cherry),
you will need to identify 9 product variations.
3 Sizes x 3 Flavours x 3 Varieties = 27 Barcodes
E.g. If the yogurt comes in 3 varieties (fat-free, lactose-free, Greek),
you will need to identify 27 product variations.
3 Sizes x 3 Flavours x 3 Varieties x 3 Packages = 81 Barcodes
E.g. If the yogurt comes in 3 packages (single, 4-pack, 8-pack),
you will need 81 barcodes.
