Products
The Quick Start shows how to add, edit and delete a product. This tutorial covers the rest of the catalog: categories, stock, variants, bundles and the price step.
Categories
Categories group your products in the Sale screen. A product can have more than one category.
- From the product form: in Product Category, type a name and choose + Create to create it on the spot.
- From the Categories section, below the product list:
- Click Add Category, enter the Category Name and click Add.
- Click Edit to rename a category and Save, or Delete to remove it.
Stock
With Track stock on, each sale subtracts from the product's stock and the Status column in the product list tells you how it's doing:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Normal | Enough stock |
| Low (restock soon) | Time to restock |
| Out of stock | Nothing left to sell |
| Not tracked | Track stock is off for this product |
Turn Track stock off for products you don't count, such as services. Refunds add the stock back (see Orders and Refunds).
Variants
Use variants when you sell the same product in several versions, such as sizes or colors. Each variant has its own SKU, price, stock and image.
- Create or edit the product and turn on Has variants. Price and stock are then managed per variant.
- Save the product, then click Variants on it in the product list. Manage Variants opens.
- Under Option types, click Add option type. Enter the Type name, for example
Size, and its values: type each one and press Enter (S,M,L). - Click Add variant, choose a value for each option type and fill in the Variant SKU, Variant Price and Variant Stock. Click Save.
- Repeat for each variant you sell.
When you add a product with variants to a sale, the Select variant window asks which one.
Bundles
A bundle is a product made of other products, such as a gift box. Selling a bundle subtracts stock from its components.
- Create the product and turn on Is a Bundle.
- In Bundle Components, search each product by name or SKU and add it. Set its Quantity, and its Variant if the component has variants.
- Set the bundle's price. Components price: shows what the components cost separately, as a reference.
- Save the product.
A product that is part of a bundle can't be deleted while it's in the bundle.
Price Step
The price step sets how many cents a price goes up or down when you adjust it, for example 5 so prices end in 0 or 5 cents. Change it in Settings → Business → Currency → Price step, then click Save.
If a product's price doesn't match the step, the product form shows Actual price: with the price that will really be used.
