For brands moving into distribution
The distributor said yes. Now they want forty fields per item.
Distributor setup stalls on paperwork: case GTINs, case weights and dimensions, shelf life, insurance, and certifications. SKU Clear keeps all of it per product, tells you what is still missing, and exports a clean item setup sheet for every buyer or distributor who asks.
Free for 3 products and 2 channels. No card required.

What gets in the way
Item setup forms that take a week
Every field is somewhere: a spreadsheet, a label file, an email from the co-packer.
Documents that lapse mid-onboarding
An insurance certificate or organic certificate expires while setup is still in progress, and the item stalls.
Wholesale math nobody checked
Distributor pricing leaves less room than you think once fees and freight come out.
How SKU Clear handles it
Built for exactly this
Wholesale item setup sheet
One export with brand, pack, seller SKU, unit UPC, units per case, unit and case wholesale, case weight and dimensions, storage, shelf life, ingredients, current certifications, and sales contact.
Document requirements per channel
Require a current insurance certificate, license, lab result, or a named certification such as Organic, and products show missing until it is on file.
Expiration warnings
Every document carries its expiration date, and anything lapsing within 60 days goes to the top of your dashboard.
Wholesale margins
Set the distributor channel to wholesale pricing, add its fees and freight, and see your margin per unit.

Questions
Does SKU Clear fill UNFI or KeHE portal forms directly?
Their portals and forms differ by distributor and region. The item setup sheet holds the fields those forms ask for, so completing them becomes copy and paste instead of research.
Does it track pallet configuration?
Not yet. It tracks case dimensions, case weight, and units per case for every pack size; pallet ties and tiers are on the list.
Can a distributor channel require our insurance certificate?
Yes. Check certificate of insurance on the channel, and every product shows missing until a current certificate covers it.
