Inventory & Items
The Items page lets you manage your laundry services, set prices, organize by category, and control how items appear on the POS register. Navigate to Operations > Items in the dashboard.
1. Items Table
Each row in the table shows:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Item Name | The item name plus variant label (if any) |
| Price | Unit price in PHP — shows a range if variants have different prices |
| Stock | Current stock count for the selected store. Color-coded: red = 0, amber = 1–5 |
| Category | The category this item belongs to |
| Service Tag | Classifies the item for the Service Breakdown chart (see below) |
| Dry Count | How many dry cycles this item consumes per unit sold (in 0.25 increments) |
| Show on Card | Toggle to show this item as a quick-select card on the POS register |
| Card Icon | Pick an icon for the quick-select card |
Click the Column guide link below the header to expand a description of each configurable column — Service Tag, Dry Count, Show on Card, and Card Icon.
Service Tags
Service tags control how the item is categorized in analytics:
| Tag | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unclassified | Default — not counted in the service breakdown |
| Self-Service | Receipts with this item count toward the self-service total |
| Drop-Off Indicator | Receipts with this item count toward the drop-off total and automatically create an order in the order board |
Saving Settings
When you change a Service Tag, Dry Count, Show on Card, or Card Icon, a Save Settings button appears showing how many items were modified. Click it to save all changes in one batch.
2. Adding an Item
Click the Add Item button to open the item form. Fill in:
- Name — the item name shown on receipts and the POS register
- Price — unit price in PHP
- Cost (optional) — your cost per unit, used for profit/loss calculations
- Category — assign to an existing category or leave blank
- SKU (optional) — stock-keeping unit code
- Description (optional) — internal notes about the item
- Variants — add size/type variants with their own price and stock
- Track Stock — enable per-store stock tracking
3. Editing and Deleting Items
Click the three-dot menu (⋯) on any row to:
- Edit — opens the item form pre-filled with current values
- Delete — permanently removes the item after confirmation
4. Managing Categories
Click the Categories button in the header to open the category manager. From here you can:
- Add a new category with a name and color
- Edit an existing category's name or color
- Delete a category (items in that category become uncategorized)
5. Multi-Store Stock
If you have multiple stores, the Stock column shows inventory for the currently selected store (visible in the header sub-label). Switch stores using the global store selector in the dashboard header to view stock at a different location.
