Estimated reading: 3 minutes 313 views

Products are the foundation of a Zoho Commerce store. Adding them with clear titles, descriptions, images and organisation makes a store easier to browse and more likely to convert. This guide covers adding a product.

How to add a product

  1. Go to Products, click Add Product, then select Add Product.
  1. Enter the general details: Title, the auto-generated URL, Selling Price, an optional Retail Price, and a unique SKU.
  1. Add a clear, engaging Description.
  2. Set display options: Show in Store to make it visible, and On Sale to display a sale badge if it applies.
  3. Organise the product with a Category, existing or new.
  1. Add Tags to make the product easier to find in search, and assign a Brand if relevant.

Returns, shipping and inventory

  1. Toggle Qualifies for Returns off if the product is not eligible for returns.
  2. Enter shipping dimensions. Turning on Ship in Separate Package calculates shipping for that product’s own package.
  3. For inventory tracking, either disable it, or enter stock quantity, a low stock limit, and optional minimum or maximum order quantities.

Product identifiers, images and variants

  1. Add product identifiers such as ISBN, UPC, EAN or MPN where applicable, which help with reselling and international listings.
  2. Upload product images.
  3. Use attributes such as size, colour or shape for products that come in more than one variant.

SEO, specifications and custom fields

  1. Enter an SEO title, keywords and description to help the product rank in search results.
  2. Link specifications from Settings > Specifications, or enable custom fields from Settings > Custom Fields to collect specific information.

Advanced inventory tracking

Enable serial number or batch number tracking under Settings > Preferences > Product Settings, if your stock needs it.

Product-specific tax

Choose the applicable tax percentage from the dropdown for your region.

Saving your product

Click Save to add the product to your store.

  • Group products into categories and collections to make browsing easier.
