Steps
- Open "Inventory" and press "New product".
- Enter the "Product name" as it should appear on the receipt, the "Sell price" in dinars, and the "Cost price" (needed to compute profit).
- Scan or type the "Barcode" if the pack has one. Leave it empty for loose or local items.
- Set the "Min": when stock falls below it, the item appears in the reorder suggestions and the home-screen card.
- Pick the "Category" (or create one from "New category"), and upload an image from "Product image" if you want it on the till grid.
- For clothing and shoes: enable "This product has variants" and "Add variant" for each size/colour with its barcode. For devices: enable the serial/IMEI. For medicines and food: enable batches and expiry. Leave them off for the rest.
- Press "Save product". The quantity starts at zero until you enter it with a stock adjustment or by receiving a purchase order.
Notes
- Later price changes save immediately from the item page and are written to the audit log under the name of whoever changed them.
- The product itself is available in every branch; the quantity is per branch.
What the system does not do
It does not fetch the name or image from the barcode automatically (no public product database).
Common questions
- The item has no factory barcode.
- Leave "Barcode" empty; an item code (SKU) is created for search, and you can print a barcode label for it from the item page ([print labels](/help/print-barcode-labels)).
- How do I enter the current quantity?
- From the item page, "Adjust stock" with the reason "Opening quantity" and the cost, or with a cycle count after adding every item.
