SalesPlay POS allows you to add products through both the POS App and the Backoffice. You can add products individually or use bulk upload via CSV or Excel.
Additionally, POS supports advanced product creation options, including Variants, Composite products, Combos, and Recipe Management.
Adding Products via the POS App
Open the POS App
Navigate to the Main Menu and select Products.
Create a New Product
Tap on Products and click the plus (+) button to add a new product.
Enter Product Details
Product Name: Enter the name of the product.
Selling Price: Specify the selling price of the product.
Product Image: Upload an image to help cashiers quickly identify the product during checkout.
Save the Product
Click Save to complete the product creation process.
This is the basic method for creating a product. If you want to add extra features such as "Sold By," category and subcategory, barcodes, cost, or enabling/disabling inventory, you can do so via the POS app. However, for additional options like combo, composite, variant, ingredient, product description, price modification, or quantity adjustment, you need to manage them through the back office.
Adding Products via Backoffice

Access the POS Backoffice.
Navigate to Products Section
Go to the Products menu, then Products List and select Add Product.

Provide the Product Name, Selling Price, and Product Image.
Advanced Product Creation (Optional)

Save the Product
Click Save to add the product to the inventory.
Bulk Upload Products via CSV/Excel
This method is essential for businesses with a large number of products or extensive menus, allowing for quick and efficient product uploads, saving time and reducing manual data entry.
Step 1: Log in to Backoffice
Access the POS Backoffice and log in.
Step 2: Navigate to the Products Section
Go to the Products menu, select Products List, and click the IMPORT button.
Step 3: Download and Prepare the CSV File
Click Download template file to get the CSV template.
Note: If using a different language, ensure you use the CSV UTF-8 (Comma delimited) (.csv) format.
Open the CSV file and enter the relevant product details. A sample entry is provided for reference.
Save the file once all details are entered.
Step 4: Upload the CSV File
Drag and drop the saved CSV file into the upload area.
Click the UPLOAD button.
Click Confirm Import to complete the process.
Important Notes:
Categories must be created before bulk uploading. The category names in the CSV/Excel file should match those in the system.
If copying and pasting product data into the CSV/Excel file, use the "Clear Format" option before uploading.
Duplicate product codes are not allowed.
If errors occur, the system will display the row/column number and type of issue for easy identification.
The downloaded CSV format is specific to the shop it was generated from and cannot be used for other businesses.
Once the bulk upload is complete, the products will be available in the Backoffice Products List and POS App.
