Creating a new product
A product is comprised of a name, a department, a sub-department, a selling price and finally pricing options. These are the key elements that you must configure to create a product.
Before creating your product
Before creating a new product, ensure you have:
Appropriate department and sub-department categories set up.
Tax rates are configured in your system.
Supplier information is available if using stock control.
Modifier information is available if using modifiers.

Log in to the Newbridge back office, entering your username and password.
Select Till Programming, then select Products.
Under Create and Manage Products, then select New.
Within Basic Product Information, enter the new product information, including:

When creating a product, you will see a stock control tab.
If you intend to use stock control, you must configure the products you are counting as stock units.
To set up stock control on a product, follow the steps below:
Within the saved product, select the Stock Control tab.
Choose from the following stock type options:
Non-Stock – Products that don't require inventory tracking.
Stock Unit – Products with inventory management, and when creating child/parent products.
Recipe – Products made from multiple ingredients.
Parent Product – Products with multiple variations.
If Stock Unit is selected, complete the following:
SKU – Choose a Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) identifier.
Supplier – Assign the product supplier.
Par Levels – Set minimum and maximum stock levels.
📌Note: The software will provide recommended orders based on these numbers.
Modifiers tab
When creating a product, you will see a modifiers tab.
A modifier is typically selected if it will be an addition to another product. For example, side options like chips.
To add a modifier to the product, follow the steps below:
Within the basic product information, set the Product Type as Modifier.
Select the Modifiers tab, then select the modifier(s) to assign.
Click Save.
Printing tab
When creating a product, you will see a printing tab.
Receipt print?
To print the product on Guest receipts, tick Print to Receipt.
Kitchen print?
You need to allocate which print slot this product will be able to print to, depending on your site's printing configuration.
For example, if it is a food item and you have a kitchen slot, then tick the corresponding box.
