How to Create Other Products (non-coffee)

RoasterTools is a comprehensive place for you to manage all your products, not just coffee. You can update other items you sell including, apparel, retail items, cafe supplies and more. Below we'll walk you through how to set up other products beyond coffee.

Creating Other Products

Step 1

  • In the menu bar, click the drop drop arrow next to Inventory and choose Products

Step 2

  1. In the Product Page, click the New Product button on the left and choose Other

Step 3

  1. Fill out the information on the Product page about the product.
  2. Use the Question Marks "?" to learn the meaning of a something while in the app. A black box will pop up (as below) with more details.

Choosing Options

Options allow your customer to choose from multiple versions a product. Some products will have no options, just sold in the one version. Others will have one, two or more options. Some common examples our customers have are t-shirt in different sizes and colors, or syrups in different flavors.

Note: If you haven't created the option sets needed for your other products, take a look at **this** article to help you get them set up.

If you have your option sets already created, you can choose how many options there are for each product.


A t-shirt product that has only size options would use one option. And a t-shirt product that has both size and color choices would have two options.


Step 1

  1. Choose how many options a product has (or choose no option)
  2. If there are options, choose the first option
  3. Press save
  4. If there are more options, repeat the above steps

  1. After you choose your options, Press Refresh Variants to update the variant matrix.

Note: the order in which you place the options is how they display on the wholesale portal. See the image below for example

Variants


After setting up the options, you're ready to dive into the variants (and almost finished with the product setup!).


Step 1

  1. Choose which variants are available for each options and toggle them on and off as needed.
  2. Fill out the information for each variant about cost, weight and wholesale price.
  3. If the variants share the same information for one option (example all small shirts are the same cost) enter the information in the top bar (shaded in light blue) and it will autofill for the remaining fields.

Step 2

  1. After filling in all the information for the different variants, scroll to the bottom of the page and click Create Product

Nice work 🙌 You now have products ready to sell!
