Products are everything you can offer in a sales gallery: prints, photography services and digital files of photos or videos. You organise them with categories and define their sizes, finishes or licences with options.
Where to find them
Go to Client Galleries / Products: Products, Packs, Categories and Options (for packs see Product packs). In Products you will find the list, with the Active and Deleted tabs and the Categories, Published, Type and Lab filters.
Main columns: Cost/Unit (set by the lab), Price/Unit (the price your customers see), Price type (Unitary, By options or By quantity), Lab (Custom or a lab) and Type.
Create a product
1. Click New product and choose the type: digital files, prints or photographic services. A step-by-step wizard opens (Product, Prices, Shipping, Photos and Uses).
2. In the Product step choose the category (or create one), the name, and an optional reference and description. If your website is multilingual, fill in the other languages too.
3. In the Prices step choose how you sell the product. The price type is chosen when you create the product.
Unitary: a price per unit and an optional discount.
By quantity: the price depends on the units ordered, either linear (all units at the same price, according to the total) or tiered (each tier has its own rate).
By options: the price depends on size, finish, thickness and type. Each combination is a variant in the Variants table: enable the ones you sell and set their price.
4. Optionally add photos, and in the last step (Uses) tick the price lists to include it in and click Finish. Prints also have a Shipping step with the cost per zone.
Edit, duplicate, sort and delete
Edit: click the product's name. Duplicate: tick the product and click Duplicate.
Enable/disable: with the switch next to the name.
Sort: drag the handle next to the name; this is the order your customers will see.
Delete: with the row's three dots (lab products can't be deleted, but can be disabled). In the Deleted tab you can recover them.
To change the discount or price of many products at once, see Change prices and discounts in bulk.
Categories
They organise your products (decoration, photos, video…) and are the same ones used by packs. Find them in Products / Categories. Click New category, type the title, choose the tax (0 %, 4 %, 10 % or 21 %) and confirm. Arcadina Labs categories can't be deleted.
Options
Options define sizes, finishes, thicknesses, types, dimensions and licences. Lab options already exist and can't be edited; yours can. Find them in Products / Options, split into tabs.
To create one, go to the matching tab, click the create button (for example Create Size), type the title and confirm. Then use it in a product with By options pricing.
