Set up your menu and products

This page is your shop's product and menu catalog (name, price, photo, category) — it's where you set up products, not where you sell them. Actual selling happens at POS counter sales (charging at the counter) or Orders (customers order themselves).

Add a new product

  1. 1Press "Add product" in the corner of the screen
  2. 2Enter the name, price, photo, and category — categories can be typed freely, no need to pick from a fixed list; the system automatically groups items typed with the same category together
  3. 3Save — the product appears in the shop immediately for customers browsing through the Korat app/website

Search and filter by category

Use the search box above the grid to find products by name, SKU, or brand, and press a category chip to filter to just that category — the number on each chip counts across the shop's whole catalog, not just the search results, so you know how many items really exist in that category.

Product status

StatusMeaning
On saleCustomers can order this item normally
Out of stockTemporarily closed for sale — toggle the switch on the product card instantly when it runs out or comes back in stock, no need to delete the product
DiscontinuedThe product was already referenced in an old bill or review, so it's changed to "Discontinued" instead of being permanently deleted — customers won't see it anymore, but past sales and reviews stay intact

Products that include alcoholic drinks always carry an "Alcohol" tag, and promotional discounts are never shown on this type of item (per Section 32 of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Act).

Deleting a product

Press the trash icon on the product card and confirm — customers won't see this product anymore, old orders that include it stay intact, and past sales figures don't change:

If anyone has already ordered this product, the system automatically changes it to "Discontinued" instead of permanently deleting it, so sales history/reviews aren't damaged — no need to worry about deleting by mistake and losing data.

No products in the shop yet

If the shop has never added a product, the page shows "No products in the shop yet" with an "Add product" button you can press to start right away — this is different from a search with no matches, which instead says "No products match your search" (these two messages are deliberately kept separate, so you don't mistake "the shop has no products" for "the filter just found nothing").

Where it can break

SymptomCause / fix
Menu fails to loadTemporary connection failure to the server — press "Retry" on the screen's button
Delete failsThe real reason from the server shows as a notification — try again, and contact support if it still fails
Product has no photoNot an error — a product with no uploaded photo shows a blank image icon instead; customers can still order it normally, but adding a photo is recommended for better sales
