❓ FAQ & Troubleshooting
Q1: What’s the difference between pieces and pack products?
-
Pieces are single units (e.g., 1 bottle of water).
-
Packs are bundles (e.g., 12 bottles of water in a carton).
Q2: Do I need to add both pieces and packs?
Not always. If your business only sells in packs, you can skip pieces. But adding both gives you more flexibility for sales and stock tracking.
Q3: Can I edit a product later to add pieces/pack details?
Yes. You can always edit product details, including switching between pieces and packs, from the Products section.
Q4: What if I don’t enable Low Product Alert?
You won’t be notified when stock runs low. For better inventory management, it’s best to always set an alert.
Conclusion
Adding products in pieces and packs helps you track inventory accurately and offer flexible pricing for your customers. Whether you add them from the Dashboard or the Products section, Timart makes it easy to manage both single units and bulk sales.
