Products & barcodes

Adding products

One at a time, or a whole spreadsheet at once.

One at a time

  1. Go to Catalog and tap Add product.
  2. Type the name and the price. That's the minimum — everything else is optional.
  3. Optional but useful: category, barcode, SKU, and whether it's taxable.
  4. Tap Save.

A whole list at once

Use Import spreadsheet on the Catalog page. Download the template first, fill in the columns in Excel or Google Sheets, and upload it. The columns are: name, price, category, barcode, sku, taxable, stock.

Tips that save time later

  • Use categories from day one. Ten tidy categories beat one long list.
  • Price in dollars and cents — 4.50, not 4.5 or $4.50.
  • If two products are the same thing in different sizes, make them two products, not one.
