How to create, edit, and organize products in Sarah's catalog.

Last updated: 2026-09-19

Products are the foundation of your inventory. Each sale, stock movement, and report relies on the catalog being well configured.

Stock by a single attribute (size)

Optional: one product = one color/SKU; warehouse stock is stored in drawers for a single attribute (usually Size / Talle).

  • On the product sheet: 1) create the attribute (e.g. Size), 2) add values one by one (S, M, L), 3) enable attribute stock and split the deposit pool.
  • To go back: under stock by attribute choose “No attribute stock”; Sarah sums drawers into one pool per warehouse.
  • Lists, POS, and dashboard show the sum of drawers; you do not edit the product total by hand when a dimension is on.
  • With no stock attribute, behavior is unchanged (one quantity per warehouse).
  • When enabled, sales (POS/shop), receiving, adjustments, and transfers require the value (the size).

View product details

From the list, use the View link in the Details column (or the actions menu → Open). This opens the product page (/products/{#}) with:

To edit, use Edit on the detail page or in the actions menu: Sarah opens /products/{#}/edit with General, Pricing, Visibility, and More tabs (not the side sheet).

  • Summary: photo, price/cost, flags, and stock by warehouse.
  • Details: identity, pricing, logistics, and gallery (plan-dependent).
  • Movements: recent history of sales outflows, receiving, adjustments, manual stock edits, initial stock, and transfers.

Main product fields

When creating or editing a product, you can define:

  • Name: how it will be displayed in POS and store.
  • Description: extended information for internal use or online store.
  • SKU / Internal code: unique identifier for your operation.
  • Barcode: for use with scanner in POS.
  • Base price, cost, real profit and margin (%) (Pricing tab, 4 columns). Real profit is net minus cost (after VAT when it applies). The margin % on cost updates the price, same as the product list.
  • Cost includes VAT (invoice) (Pricing tab, Argentina): checkbox on by default. If you typed cost from an invoice that included VAT, Sarah shows net cost (cost ÷ (1 + rate)) and real profit = net sale − net cost. The number you type in Cost is not rewritten on save. If the product is Exempt / 0% VAT, the checkbox does not change the figures.
  • Price lists (Pricing tab, if the company has any): percentage lists are computed from the selling price; value lists are edited here (blank = selling price). Manage lists in Price lists.
  • VAT rate (Argentina, Pricing tab): 21% by default; also 10.5%, 27%, etc.
  • Other taxes (municipal, IIBB / provincial, internal, national): in addition to VAT, they do not replace it. The % is on the net, inside the shelf price. Below you see the live split of the selling price (net, VAT and each tribute). POS still charges the same; AFIP files VAT in AlicIva and these in Tributos. Blank = unused.
  • Category: to group products (the primary category).
  • Also appears in: extra store categories (the product shows in more than one menu). Promotions and POS stay on the primary category.
  • Dimensions (weight, height, length, width): useful for shipping and integrations.
  • Store featured and Store sort order: control visibility and position in the online store (see Store products).
  • Enabled / disabled status for sale.

Create a new product

  1. Go to the Products module from the main menu.
  2. Click "New product".
  3. Complete required fields (name, price, etc.).
  4. Assign category and, if applicable, barcode.
  5. Save changes.

You can also create one from POS (+ Product): it shows up in the catalog immediately, without reloading the screen.

The product will be available in:

  • POS to make sales.
  • Online store, if the company has it enabled and the product is marked to be shown there.

Edit existing products

To update prices, descriptions, or categories:

  1. Search for the product in the list.
  2. Click Edit.
  3. Make necessary changes (price, category, enabled, etc.).
  4. Save.

Changes will automatically reflect in POS and reports.

If you change the stock quantity in the products table (warehouse column) or in Warehouses and stock, Sarah writes an Edit movement. Creating a product with initial stock writes Initial stock. Both show up on the Movements tab of the product detail.

Enable / disable products

Instead of deleting products that already have historical movements, it's recommended to:

  • Disable them when they're no longer sold.

This way:

  • They continue appearing in historical reports.
  • They stop being available for new sales.

Label printing

From Inventory > Products, the Labels button opens the print modal:

Formats

  • A4: configurable grid of columns and rows.
  • Thermal rolls: 80 mm and 57 mm.

Content options

Choose what to show on each label:

  • Price (primary, secondary, and tertiary lists; 2nd and 3rd share one compact line).
  • Layout: classic (stacked), Market (big price + list block), Sale (promo banner), or Ticket (color rail). 2nd and 3rd prices use distinct colors.
  • Brand, description, barcode.
  • VAT on label: configurable percentage independent of billing VAT (useful for shelf display).
  • Promotional price and promotion badge.

Quick load

  • All: add all products.
  • Recent price update: products with a recent price change.
  • With promotion: products with an active promotion.

Saved preferences

Sarah remembers your last configuration (columns, rows, display options) to speed up repeat printing.
