A product is the item you sell to your customers at the point of sale.

Products are organized into groups and categories that are used for agile structuring in both the back-office and the app. Each of them has a wide variety of details and related items that can be defined to create a customized solution that works best for your company.

When we enter a category, a screen is displayed with all the products it contains. The following information is shown there:
