Product Name: Enter the exact name or title of the product as it will be added to the program’s database.

-
Barcode: Scan the barcode on the product using a barcode reader, and it will automatically appear in the field. Alternatively, you can enter it manually. You’ll notice a “+” sign next to the barcode field, allowing you to add additional barcodes for the same product. This is useful for products with multiple variants but the same price.
For instance, the Program for Daily can recognize that all products with the same price are Pepsi, even if they have different barcodes for different varieties. This way, you can unify products of the same type that have multiple barcodes.
Quantity: This field is for entering the number of units available for this particular item.
- Example: If you’re adding 10 boxes of screws, you would enter “10” here.
Supplier: This is a dropdown menu where you select the supplier who provides this item to your store. This information is stored in the database for future reference and can be used to generate reports related to specific suppliers.

Sub-Units: Here, we select the sub-unit to be added from the previously added units.
