# Variable Items not Syncing

 * I am running into a similar issue as this post: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-square-syncing-issues-2/#post-17996450](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/woocommerce-square-syncing-issues-2/#post-17996450)
   where “Please add an SKU to every variation of … for syncing with Square. Each
   SKU must be unique and match the corresponding item’s SKU in your Square account”
   shows up but only for my variable products. Simple products work fine and I do
   see the stock changes in them.
 * I’ve tried disconnecting and reconnecting the Square account multiple times and
   triple-checked all my SKUs. All are simple four digit numbers. The main product
   also has a number though there is not one in Square. I haven’t noticed a difference
   whether there is one or not. I’ve also made sure that the PHP time limit is sufficient.
   I’ve made sure both the WooCommerce and WooCommerce Square plugins are up to 
   date.
 * I am including an example of one of the Woocommerce variations and the corresponding
   Square item.

 * As a further note, the variable items are listed as syncing with Square when 
   that filter is chosen in WooCommerce.
 * However, when loading the product, the checkbox regarding sending product data
   to Square appears checked and then unchecks as the error very briefly appears.

 * Hello [jheikoop](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jheikoop/),
 * Thank you for contacting WooCommerce support.
 * I understand you’re encountering an issue where you’re receiving the message “
   _Please add an SKU to every variation of … for syncing with Square_” specifically
   for variable products, while simple products are syncing fine and showing stock
   changes.
 * You’ve already tried disconnecting and reconnecting the Square account, checked
   your SKUs, and ensured everything is up to date.
 * Could you tell me whether this setup was working properly before?
   Also, could
   you explain how you initially set up the products in both WooCommerce and Square?
 * This information will help narrow down the issue.
 * Looking forward to your response. 🙂
