Editing a Product

  1. In the product list, locate the product you want to modify
  2. Click the Edit icon to open the product details
  3. Update any field
  4. Click Save to apply changes

Adjusting Stock Levels

When you receive new inventory or need to correct stock counts:
  1. Open the product you want to update
  2. Click the Edit icon to open the product details
  3. Update the Stock Quantity field, Enter the new total quantity (not the change amount)
  4. Save the changes
Best Practice: Conduct regular inventory counts to ensure accuracy.

Importing Products in Bulk

If you have a large product catalogue, use the bulk import feature instead of adding products one by one:
  1. Navigate to the Products section
  2. Click the Import button
  3. Download the provided template to see the required format
  4. Fill in your product data (name, brand, price, cost, stock quantity, etc.)
  5. Upload the completed file
  6. Review the imported data and confirm
All imported products appear in your product list immediately.

Archiving a Product

Products cannot be deleted directly — they must be archived first. Archiving hides the product from the active list while preserving all records.
  1. Find the product in your list
  2. Click the three-dot menu and select Archive
  3. Confirm in the dialog
The product is now hidden from the active list. Past sales that included this product are not affected. To restore or permanently delete an archived product, use the status filter to view archived products, then click the three-dot menu and select Restore or Permanently Delete.
Permanent deletion is only available for archived products with no sales history. Products that have been sold can only be archived, not permanently deleted.

Selling Products

Products can be sold in two ways:

1. During an Appointment (Checkout)

When a client completes their appointment and you’re ready to check them out:
  1. Open the appointment in the Scheduler
  2. Click Checkout
  3. The checkout screen shows:
    • Services rendered (already listed)
    • Option to add products
  4. Click Add Product
  5. Search for and select the product(s)
  6. Enter quantity and team member that did the sale
  7. The system automatically:
    • Adds the product price to the total
    • Deducts quantity from inventory
  8. Complete the payment process

2. Standalone Product Sale

If a client purchases products without an appointment:
  1. Go to the Sales section
  2. Click Add Sale
  3. Select the client
  4. In the items section, click Add Product
  5. Search for and select products
  6. Enter quantities and team member performed the sale for each product
  7. Save the sale
Inventory is automatically updated when products are sold.
