When adding products to your store, you can add additional attributes, such as the colors of t-shirts. This is referred to as "sub-items." You will also be able to manage your inventory.

1. In the Store module, click the Products tab. A list of all products currently set up in your system will be displayed.

   

2. Click the Add Store Item button.

   

3. Configure the following for your new product:

   • Name: This is the name of the product that will be displayed on the public website.
   • Price: Enter the price for this item. NOTE: If you are adding sub-items, you will set the price for each sub-item individually.
   • Inventory Tracking: Choose the desired inventory tracking option.  If the default is selected, price changes are not monitored when managing inventory. If FIFO is selected, you will be able to track not only your inventory but also the cost of your inventory on hand. See FIFO Store Inventory Management for further information. 
   • Inv. Remaining: Enter the number of this item you currently have in inventory. As items are purchased, the total will be decreased, and when inventory reaches zero, this will be reflected as "Sold Out" in your store. NOTE: If you are adding sub-items, you will set inventory for each sub-item, and this field should not be populated. Customers will not be able to choose a quantity above the maximum remaining. 
   • Contact: Enter an optional contact. If a product in your store is tied to a member of yours or is being sold on their behalf, you can tie it to a contact in your database, and it will automatically pull in the contact's logo for the product image.
   • Sub Items: If you wish to add attributes (for example, you are selling t-shirts and you offer different sizes or colors), click the orange plus icon to add the attributes.
      

   

   
    

   • • Enter a name for this sub-item. For example, if you are selling different colors of t-shirts, enter the color name.
     • Enter the price for this sub-item.
     • Enter the Inv. Remaining. This is the number of this item you currently have in inventory. As items are purchased, the total will be decreased, and when inventory reaches zero, this will be reflected as "Sold Out" in your store. 
   • Saleable Item: Select the fee item associated with this product. Fee Items that you have created as Physical Product or Digital Product will be displayed in the drop-down. You can add a new Fee Item by clicking the + button. If you have not added attributes, the price associated with the fee item will be displayed; you may change this as needed.
   • Category Item: Select a category item from the drop-down. Category will allow for filtering on your store website.
   • Description: Enter a description of this product. The description will be displayed on your public web-site when someone clicks on the item.
   • Short Description: Enter a short description. NOTE: If you are using V2 of the public modules for the store, the short description will be displayed, along with the description on the product details page. With V1 of the public modules, this is not displayed anywhere.
   • Is Active: Select this check-box to display this item in your store. If the item is no longer available, you can deselect this option.
   • Shipping Not Available: Enable this option if you will not ship this item, and it must be picked up.

4. Click Done.
