## What it means for a shop owner

A good rule is short, readable at a glance and uses only letters and digits. Do not put price or date in the code because they change. Write the rule down so everyone who adds an item knows it.

## A worked example

The rule type-colour-size, 3 parts, gives TS-RD-L for a red tee in L and TS-RD-M for the M.
