Your dashboard makes it easy to organize and update the products you offer. Whether you're adding new items, adjusting existing product details, or managing categories across multiple locations, the steps below walk you through everything you need to keep your product list accurate and up to date. To access your product information: 1. Click **Settings** in the left-hand panel. 2. Select **Locations**. 3. Choose the location you want to update. - If you’d like to add products to all locations later, you can do this after creation. 4. Click **Edit** in the top right corner. ### **Categories** Categories act as the top-level grouping for your products. When you select a category (for example, **Concrete** or **Line Pump**), all products you create will sit under that category. - Your product categories will appear on the left under **Categories and products**. - Most businesses will choose their main category once and continue adding products within it — for example, adding different concrete mixes under the *Concrete* category. You only need to add additional categories if your business begins offering new types of products in the future. To add a new category, click **Select categories** and choose from the list. You will see the new category appear under the **Categories and products section**.  ### **Adding a New Product** Products are the individual items or services you offer within each category, such as specific concrete mixes, pump types. 1. Under the **Categories & products** section on the left, select the category where the new product belongs. - You’ll see all existing products for the selected location (shown at the top of the screen). - You may need to use the drop-down arrow to expand the category to see all of your products. 2. Click **Add new**. - Here, you will see a list of all products in your account, including those assigned to other locations. - A product with a green checkmark is already available at the selected location. - Tick the box beside a product to add it to that location. *This is also the quickest way to add products to multiple locations. Simply switch to another location using the green arrows at the top (next to the location name), then repeat the process and tick the products you want to add.* 3\. To create an entirely new product, click **Create new** in the top-right corner. #### **Product Details** When creating a new product, enter: - **Product name –** The internal name for the product. This can also be displayed in places where a more technical name is preferred, such as in the Driver App. - **Storefront name –** The customer-facing name shown in the Contractor App and on invoices. - **Export code** – Used to map this product in Tough Commerce to the corresponding item in your accounting software (e.g., QuickBooks). This is your own export code for that product. - **Subcategory** – Select from the dropdown or click **Add new subcategory**. - **Product photo** – Optional image of the product. - **Description** – Add an internal description for product reference. Click **Add** to create the product. It will now appear in your product list.  You’ll now need to set pricing for your product—otherwise it won’t appear in your dashboard.
