Products is the home base for information about each of the items you sell in your dispensary. Products allows you to add variants to products like shirt sizes, dosage sizes, flavors, and more so that you can keep your product catalog precise and organized. This article will explain how to add products and their variants and provide examples for variants in popular categories.
Note: Maui's Categories are currently added through Flowhub's backend, and not yet directly in-app. If you need a category added please email help@flowhub.com for further assistance.
