Creating/Editing Product Groups

Product Groups are a grouping of products that can be sold together. For example, a combo meal consisting of a cheeseburger, fries, and a drink can be grouped in a product group. 

1. To set up a product group, select the Register Management activity.  Then select Product Groups on the Products tab.  

2. You can track a lot of details about products; however, only the fields with green font are required.  The required fields are:

• Product group name
• Product description
• Unit per issue (How many are sold with 1 click of the button).  The unit per issue is usually 1.
• Unit price for group - This is the price the product group will be sold for. 
• Category - The category is a grouping of products on the register display and reports.
• Tax Option - Select a tax option for each location the product will be available for sale.
• Sellable - Mark as true.  If  you don't, the product will not show up on the register for sale.  This field is located at the bottom of the form near sales tax options.

Optional fields:

• Inventoried - Check this box if you want this product group to be tracked in inventory.
