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 of 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.

For more information on adding products, watch the video below:

Adding Non-flower Items to Catalog:

  1. Navigate to the screen's pop-out window on the left side and select INVENTORY.

  2. At the top of the screen, select PRODUCTS.

  3. Select the NEW PRODUCT button.

  4. Select a Category from the drop-down menu.

    • Your categories will populate the required fields when creating products and Inventory items.

    • These required fields are marked with an asterisk and can vary based on your market.

    • These fields can include testing information, terpenes, serving size, and more.

  5. Enter a Name.

    • It is best to follow the same naming conventions across all your stores. This will help identify items in the cashier app and make transfers between stores seamless. For example, if your naming conventions are brand, name, and type, an example accessory would look like the following: Sandy Shores Live Rosin.

  6. Enter an optional External Display Name if you would like a different name than what's entered above in the Product Name to display on your online menus and ecommerce platforms.

  7. Enter an optional Brand.

    • Manufacturer of the Product

  8. Enter an optional Type.

    • This acts as a subcategory in the category. This will allow you to set up specials based on type and filter reports to make it easier to search for items in your inventory.

      • Types can include sugar, wax, cold-cure, etc.

  9. Enter an optional Description.

    • This information will push to your online menu integrator.

  10. Enter an optional UPC.

  11. Select the UOM (Unit of Measure).

    • Grams

    • Fluid Ounces

    • Milliliters

  12. Enter an optional Par Level.

    • The lowest number of items you want to have in stock before reordering.

    • This information can be retrieved in Analytics by running a Par Level Report.

  13. Enter Weight/Volume.

    • This is not required when SELL BY WEIGHT is enabled.

  14. Sell By Weight and Use Price Profile options:

    • For Bulk Concentrates:

      • Check the "SELL BY WEIGHT" box for bulk bud variations.

      • When this box is checked, the "USE PRICE PROFILE" box is automatically checked. This is because a Price Profile is needed to determine the price of any given weight of bulk concentrates.

    • For Pre-packed Concentrates:

      • Check the "USE PRICE PROFILE"

      • Enter weight in the Weight /Volume box for which you have a Price Profile tier.

  15. Select the inventory type.

    • Med

    • Rec

    • Both

  16. Pricing

    • Select a Price Profile from the drop-down menu or enter a Price for individual products.

      • If your dispensary has Out the Door (OTD) pricing enabled, you'll set the post-tax price here.

    • Set a Default cost per gram for bulk concentrates or per unit for all other products.

      • Select "ADD LOCATION AND/OR GROUP SPECIFIC PRICE" to expand that menu and select a relevant Price Profile and cost for specific locations or customer groups.

Additional Variations

  1. Select ADD ANOTHER VARIANT

  2. The information entered in the previous section will act as Your First Variant.

  3. Enter a name for your Next Variant.
