Products

Overview of your product catalogue: view, edit, duplicate, status, delete, and links to creation, tax, inventory, barcodes, and related topics.

What is a Product?

A product is an item you sell. Each product has a name, belongs to a category, and can have multiple variants (versions with different sizes, colors, etc.). Products are the core of your catalogue and are used when creating orders.

Viewing Your Products

The Products page shows a filterable list:

  • Search by product name
  • Filter by category or status (Active, Inactive)
  • Each row shows the product name (with category, variant count, and date under it), status, price, and inventory tracking (Tracked / Not Tracked) when inventory is enabled.

Click on a product to view its full details.

Editing a Product

  1. Click on a product from the list.
  2. On the Product Details page:
    • Click Edit to modify basic information (name, description, category, status, tax settings)
    • Click Edit Images to manage photos (add, remove, set primary)
    • Manage store-specific prices per variant (multi-store)
    • Click Add Variant to add a new variant, or click a variant to edit its price, cost price, SKU, or unit of measure
    • Moderate customer reviews in the Reviews section

For the full creation wizard (Quick Add, variants, images, store pricing), see Add a new product. For tax and inventory rules, see Tax and inventory.

Duplicating a Product

When a new product is almost identical to an existing one (same category, tax setup, variants, and photos), duplicate it instead of starting from scratch:

  1. Open the product's details page, or find it in the products list.
  2. Click Duplicate and confirm.
  3. You land on the copy's details page: rename it, adjust the SKUs and prices, then set its status to Active when it's ready to sell.

What the copy includes:

CopiedAdjusted automatically
Category, description, tax settings, inventory trackingName gets a (Copy) suffix; rename it before selling
All variants with their prices, units, and option valuesEvery SKU gets a numeric suffix (e.g. TSHIRT-001-2), since SKUs must stay unique
Photos and store-specific pricesStatus starts as Inactive and stock starts at zero

Why the copy starts inactive

An inactive copy never appears on your storefront or POS until you've reviewed the name, SKUs, and prices, so customers never see a half-finished "(Copy)" product.

Product Statuses

Each product has a status that controls its visibility and availability:

StatusMeaning
ActiveThe product is visible in the catalogue, can be added to orders, and appears on the online storefront
InactiveThe product is unavailable: hidden from customers, while its history is preserved in past orders

You can change a product's status at any time from the product details page.

To keep an active product out of your online store while still selling it at the counter, use Available on Online Store instead.

Deleting a Product

  1. Open the product details.
  2. Click Delete.
  3. Confirm the deletion.

Warning

Deleting a product removes it permanently. Orders that included this product will still show the product name in their history.
