Add Product Products
/products/create
The full product creation form — core details, categorization, locations, tax and pricing, and a product-type-driven section for single, variable or combo pricing.
This screen requires product.create, and is blocked with an expired-subscription or quota-exceeded response if the business isn't subscribed or has already used up its product quota for its package.
The form opens with core fields: Product Name (required), SKU (auto-generated if left blank), HSN, Barcode Type, Unit plus optional related sub-units and a secondary unit, Brand, Category/Sub Category, Product Model, the Business Locations the product is sold from, Alert Quantity, Warranty, a description, a product image and brochure upload, expiry settings, rack/row/position fields (when the business has those enabled), weight, custom fields, and — for the Restaurant module — a preparation time.
Further down, Applicable Tax and Selling Price Tax Type apply across the whole product, and the Product Type selector — Single, Variable or Combo — reveals the matching pricing section: Single takes one purchase/selling price and opening stock line; Variable builds out a grid of variation combinations (from a Variation Template) each with its own SKU and prices; Combo bundles a fixed set of other products together under one sellable item.
Opening the page with a ?d={product_id} query string duplicates an existing product into the form (its name suffixed "(copy)"), including its rack details and sub-categories, to speed up adding near-identical items.
