00:00:01.205 --> 00:00:05.539
In this episode we add a product to the catalogue, from start to finish.

2
00:00:07.255 --> 00:00:13.335
Open Products in the Catalog group. This is everything you sell. Each row shows the

3
00:00:13.335 --> 00:00:18.316
name, SKU, type, category, brand, price and how much stock you have.

4
00:00:18.548 --> 00:00:24.699
The filters at the top narrow the list by category, brand, supplier or type, and the

5
00:00:24.699 --> 00:00:30.703
search box finds a product by name, SKU or barcode. To add one, click New product.

6
00:00:31.207 --> 00:00:36.366
First you pick an industry template. A template pre-fills the things that suit that

7
00:00:36.366 --> 00:00:41.215
kind of business, for example size and colour for clothing, serial numbers for

8
00:00:41.215 --> 00:00:43.390
bicycles, or expiry dates for food.

9
00:00:44.045 --> 00:00:48.859
Everything can be changed afterwards, and you can skip the template and start blank.

10
00:00:48.859 --> 00:00:53.042
We are adding a simple item, so scroll back up and choose General retail.

11
00:00:54.549 --> 00:00:59.297
The Name is the only thing you must fill in. We will add an insulated water bottle.

12
00:01:00.641 --> 00:01:05.679
A description is optional. Below it are the product type, how stock is tracked, and

13
00:01:05.679 --> 00:01:09.078
the unit. Quantity only and Each are right for a bottle.

14
00:01:09.854 --> 00:01:14.842
Scroll down to Pricing. Retail price is what the customer pays. We will charge

15
00:01:14.842 --> 00:01:16.121
twenty four dollars.

16
00:01:17.486 --> 00:01:22.865
Cost is what you pay for it. Here, nine dollars and fifty cents. Next to it, the app

17
00:01:22.865 --> 00:01:24.786
works out your margin for you.

18
00:01:26.114 --> 00:01:32.168
The SKU is your own stock code for the product. Choose something short that you will

19
00:01:32.168 --> 00:01:35.051
recognise. Ours is B O T T L E dash one.

20
00:01:35.589 --> 00:01:39.913
You can type a barcode if the product already has one. If you leave it empty, the

21
00:01:39.913 --> 00:01:43.757
system can make one for you, as long as that is switched on in settings.

22
00:01:45.271 --> 00:01:50.496
Opening stock is how many you have today, outlet by outlet. We have twelve at Main

23
00:01:50.496 --> 00:01:52.408
Street and six at Harbor Mall.

24
00:01:53.479 --> 00:01:58.003
The reorder point is the level at which you want a warning that stock is running

25
00:01:58.003 --> 00:01:59.247
low. We will use four.

26
00:02:00.551 --> 00:02:06.305
Further down you can choose a brand and a tax class. The tax class decides which tax

27
00:02:06.305 --> 00:02:08.909
rate applies. Standard is fine for us.

28
00:02:09.958 --> 00:02:15.271
The Selling card has switches. Discountable says whether discounts may apply, and

29
00:02:15.271 --> 00:02:20.255
Earns loyalty points does the same for points. Active has to stay on, or the

30
00:02:20.255 --> 00:02:22.026
register hides the product.

31
00:02:22.348 --> 00:02:26.742
At the bottom you can upload pictures. The first one shows on the register. We will

32
00:02:26.742 --> 00:02:27.642
leave it for now.

33
00:02:29.632 --> 00:02:31.512
Scroll up, and press Create product.

34
00:02:33.040 --> 00:02:38.391
The app confirms, and shows the finished product, with the stock on hand across both

35
00:02:38.391 --> 00:02:38.836
stores.

36
00:02:39.872 --> 00:02:44.130
To check, go back to the product list and search for bottle. There it is, ready to

37
00:02:44.130 --> 00:02:44.389
sell.

38
00:02:46.650 --> 00:02:51.656
That is a product. In the next episode we add a product that comes in sizes, with a

39
00:02:51.656 --> 00:02:52.922
barcode for each one.
