ACEL

Retail Catalog

Manage Retail Products and Channels

Review sellable products, confirm where they can be sold, and verify stock tracking before cashiers or storefront customers use them.

Steps

  1. Open Retail, then choose Products.
    Acel Retail products list
    The products list shows the provisioned catalog, prices, POS availability, storefront status, and edit actions.
  2. Click New product to add a new item, or use the edit action to update an existing product.
  3. In Basics, confirm the product name, category, prices, stock setting, and description.
    Acel Retail new product basics tab
    Basics keep the product recognizable in the catalog and explain what the cashier or storefront customer is buying.
  4. Enable Manage Stock when Acel should track quantity for the product.
  5. Open Channels.
    Acel Retail product channel settings
    Channels decide whether the same product appears in POS, the storefront, or both.
  6. Enable Available in POS when cashiers should sell the item in POS.
  7. Enable Available online only when the item should publish to the storefront.
  8. Open Stock, then review the SKU and current quantity for managed stock.
    Acel Retail product stock settings
    After opening stock is journaled, quantity is movement-controlled and should change through stock actions, receiving, or sales.
  9. Save the product, then open Inventory to confirm stock on hand.
    Acel Retail inventory and stock journal
    The inventory view confirms stock on hand and shows the journal trail behind the quantity.

Opening stock is setup data. After creation, stock should move through adjustments, purchase receiving, or sales so the quantity stays explainable.
