Variations, attributes, and brands#

Define the building blocks that products share, so you set them up once and reuse them across the catalog.

Attributes and terms

Reusable options such as Size (S, M, L) or Colour (Red, Blue) that products draw from.

Variations

Combine attribute terms into the sellable versions of a product, each with its own SKU, price, stock, and image.

Brands

Assign products to a brand for filtering and brand pages.

Specifications

Structured spec rows (for example material or dimensions) shown on the product page.

Categories and tags#

Organise the catalog so shoppers can browse and filter, and so your menus and shop pages have something to point at.

Categories

Group products into a nested category tree that powers collection pages and the shop filters.

Tags

Lighter, cross cutting labels for grouping products beyond the category tree.

Where they show

Categories feed the shop and collection pages and can be linked from the navigation menus.

Inventory#

Track stock levels and movements so the storefront shows accurate availability and low stock urgency.

Stock locations

Hold stock across more than one location, each with its own quantities.

Per location stock

The quantity of each product or variation at each location.

Stock history

A record of every change, so you can see how a level got to where it is.

Availability rules

Low stock thresholds and backorder behaviour, which drive the storefront badges and the low stock scarcity display.

Import and export#

Move catalog and store data in and out in bulk, so you can launch a large catalog quickly or take a copy for backup or migration.

Import

Load products in bulk from a CSV or Excel file, mapping columns to product fields.

Export

Download your catalog and store data as a file.

Import jobs

Large product imports run as tracked jobs, visible from the products area, so you can watch progress and see any errors.

AI enrichment

With the AI Product Creator on, imported rows can be enriched with generated descriptions and details.
