What will we learn in this tutorial?

Here you will learn how to allow the registration of products with the same code, how to clone a product and adjust the size/color and how to sell these products.

The option to “clone” a product can make the registration and control of these items much easier, as it allows you to quickly copy the main information of the product and make small adjustments later, which makes it easier to change the size or that product.

Shall we learn how to configure the control of products of different sizes or colors?

1. On the Products screen, click on the GEAR icon in the upper right corner of the screen.

2. Select option 3. ALLOW THE SAME CODE FOR MULTIPLE PRODUCTS and click on OK - F2 to save the configuration.

This configuration will allow all identical products, but with different sizes or colors, to use the same code.

3. On the Products screen, select the product you want to clone and click on EDIT - F2.

4. Click on COPY - F3.

5. Change the NAME of the cloned product, specifying the size or color of the product, and keep the same code. Then click on SAVE - F2.

If necessary, fill in and update other information in the product registration, such as current stock, location or other information, before saving.

6. On the Sales screen, click on NEW SALE - F3.

7. Enter the product CODE and select, from the description, the SIZE or COLOR sold.

8. After selecting all products, in the upper left corner, click on SAVE - F2.

If necessary, fill in the other information about the sale, such as customer, delivery, discount, among others, before saving.

Done! Now you can sell and control the stock of your products with different sizes and/or colors.
