Retail Catalog
Create or Update Retail Products
Add new sellable products or update existing ones, choose where they can be sold, and verify stock tracking before cashiers or storefront customers use them.
Steps
-
From the main dashboard, choose Retail.
After login, start from the dashboard and enter the Retail workspace. -
In Catalog & Setup, choose Products.
The Retail dashboard gives catalog managers a clear route into product setup. -
Choose the right starting point: click New product to add an item, or use the edit action to update an existing product.
The products list gives you both paths: add a new product from the header action or edit a product already in the catalog. -
In Basics, enter or confirm the product name, category, prices, stock setting, and description.
The example screenshot uses an existing localfresh product, but the same Basics fields apply when creating a new product. - Enable Manage Stock when Acel should track quantity for the product.
-
Open Channels.
Channels decide whether the same product appears in POS, the storefront, or both. - Enable Available in POS when cashiers should sell the item in POS.
- Enable Available online only when the item should publish to the storefront.
-
Open Stock, then enter or review the SKU and current quantity for managed stock.
After opening stock is journaled, quantity is movement-controlled and should change through stock actions, receiving, or sales. -
Save the product, then open Inventory to confirm stock on hand.
The inventory view confirms stock on hand and shows the journal trail behind the quantity.
Opening stock is setup data. After creation, stock should move through adjustments, purchase receiving, or sales so the quantity stays explainable.
