Creating Products Using the Duplicate Products Function
Adding products in Supply’d Lite is quick and efficient using the Duplicate Products function. This feature lets you copy an existing product’s details, so you only need to make small changes instead of entering everything from scratch. It’s ideal for adding similar products with different sizes, flavours, or variations.
For example, we need to add a dairy free version of the blue chocolate unicorn product for our supplier Unicorn Chocolates. The brand, size, and price are the same as the Blue Chocolate Unicorn we have already added. Using the Duplicate Product feature will save time by copying all the details - we will only need to update the name, SKU, barcode, and description.
Here's how:
Change Details
Simply update what's needed, like the name, image, SKU, barcode and description.
Remember:
The name should be unique.
The SKU must be unique.
The barcode must be unique.
In our example, we are adding a dairy-free version of the Blue Chocolate Unicorn. The product is the same size, looks the same, and the supplier details and buy price are the same. So in this case we simply changed:
The product name from Blue Chocolate Unicorn to Dairy Free Blue Chocolate Unicorn
SKU
Barcode
Added "dairy-free" to the description
The ingredients
