## Related Concepts

Here are a few key concepts of TWICE Commerce that relate to SKU stock items.

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="SKU as Grouping Mechanism">
    A <Tooltip tip="Groups similar stock items under shared definitions" href="/docs/concepts/inventory/skus" cta="Learn more">SKU</Tooltip> acts as a grouping mechanism—all stock items linked to the same SKU share common attributes, categories, and settings while maintaining their individual identity and lifecycle.

  <Accordion title="Attribute Inheritance">
    Stock items automatically inherit attributes defined at the SKU level. This means updating an attribute on the SKU will affect all linked stock items, ensuring consistency across your inventory.

  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Individual Stock Item Tracking">
    While stock items inherit SKU properties, each maintains its own unique tracking data including usage history, events, condition updates, and lifecycle status.

  <Accordion title="Linking and Unlinking Items">
    You can link new stock items to a SKU or unlink existing ones. When unlinked, the stock item loses inherited attributes but retains its individual history and data.
