The Product Register

The Product Register consists of two sections, similar to that of the Contact register. The upper section contains general information about the product. The lower section consists of tabs with more detailed information about prices, discounts, suppliers and various stock values.

If there are fields or tabs that are not displayed, or which you do not want to be displayed, you can change this within the User settings for Product. You can specify which functions are available in the product register within Company Settings for Product. You will also find settings for integration with the webshop.

When you open the register for the first time, the Customisation of functions window will open. It is important that you select which functionality your business is using so that the Product Register can be adjusted according to your company's needs. These adjustments can also be made within the company settings, which you will find under View - Settings - Company - Settings per Module - Product.
