Products
Manage the product catalog your farm sells, used in label templates and delivery line items
adminProducts
The Products page is where you define the sellable items your farm produces. Products link label templates to specific packaged goods and appear as line item options when creating deliveries. It lives at Settings > Products.
Product fields
Each product record has the following fields:
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Product Name | Yes | The display name, for example “Lion’s Mane Fresh” |
| SKU | Yes | Your internal stock-keeping unit code, for example LM-FRESH-0.5LB |
| Net Weight | Yes | The labeled net weight including unit, for example 0.5 lb (227g) |
| Price | No | Retail or wholesale price, for example $9.00 |
| UPC | No | Universal Product Code barcode number, 8 to 14 digits, for example 012345678905 |
| Recipe | No | Links the product to a recipe, so block, batch and lot labels for that recipe print its net weight, price, UPC and best-by date. One product prints per recipe: if several products share a recipe, the oldest one is used. |
| Best By Offset (days) | No | Days after harvest to compute the best-by date on labels, from 0 to 3650. Leave blank to use the value from your Brand Profile. |

How products are used
- Labels: A label finds its product through the recipe. When you print a block, batch or lot label, the product linked to that recipe fills in the product name, SKU, net weight, price, UPC and best-by date. A product that is not linked to a recipe does not print on any label.
- Deliveries: Products appear as line item options on delivery records, linking sold quantities to specific SKUs.
- Best-by date calculation: At print time, the best-by date is the block’s first harvest date plus the product’s Best By Offset (or the Brand Profile offset when the product has none). The harvest date is the day on your farm’s clock, using the time zone in your farm settings. A block with no harvest yet, and a batch or lot label, counts from the day you print. If neither the product nor the Brand Profile has an offset, the label prints a dash.
