Nenji inventory import: design + decisions (linked from issue #386)

Nenji Inventory Import Brainstorm

Date: 2026-05-10 Status: Draft (decisions reached; awaiting approval to implement)

What We're Building

A one-time migration of Nenji's master inventory list into Elevete's existing ProductSKU / ProductSKUVariant tables. Imported items go in as Type='erp' — once imported, they are ordinary ERP-managed SKUs, indistinguishable from items staff create manually. There is no ongoing sync, no Nenji ID storage, no special-case code path.

This treats SKU in its textbook meaning — Stock Keeping Unit, anything we keep on hand — covering finished goods, semi-finished goods, raw ingredients, packaging, and supplies. It unifies inventory tracking under a single table and lets sellable items sit on the existing PriceList flow with no glue.
