The Power Edit feature is designed to help save time and effort when editing products by only showing the fields you want to make changes to. You can edit any number of products at a time, and you can edit any number of the Information or Layout fields for each of those products. You could, for example, want to change the price and quantity on hand for several products. Rather than having to edit each product individually and scroll through all the information for each product, you can use Power Edit to view only the Price and Quantity On Hand fields for those products, all on one screen.
Name |
This is the name of the product that will appear wherever the product is displayed, and also the name of the product used in the Back Office. You must enter a unique name for the product, although you may toggle whether or not to display the name to customers. |
|
Enter the regular price the product will sell for (in your primary currency). This price will be used in calculating the order total, unless you have the product on sale or if the customer qualifies for quantity pricing. You can toggle whether or not the price is displayed on Store Pages and Product More Info Pages. |
|
If you enter a value here, it will be used to calculate the price of the product when you have it On Sale. You can have ShopSite calculate the sale price as a percent off the regular price by entering the percent off, including a percent sign (%), or you can enter a specific sale price (in your primary currency). |
Taxable |
Leave this box checked to have ShopSite calculate sales tax for this product. If you un-check the box, this product will not be included in sales tax calculations, regardless of any other settings. You can set the tax rates in the Commerce Setup > Sales Tax section. |
SKU |
The Stock Keeping Unit or SKU is a code used to identify billable items. If you have a SKU system, or any other tracking system (UPC, EAN, ISBN, etc.), you can enter the code in this field. The SKU does not appear on pages by default (although there is a toggle to enable that, if you want), but is included in the order information so you can use it for fulfillment. |
|
This is the image that will appear next to or above the product information (the arrangement depends on which product template you choose). See the Image Tool help for more information on selecting an image. |
Product Image Size |
Select one of the available Image Sizes to use for the product image. |
Product Description |
You can use this field to provide customers with important information about your product. Provide a brief descriptive summary including highlights about the product, and make sure to mention any significant features your customers will want to know about. You may want to include HTML content (such as a key feature list) to improve the presentation of the information. It is usually a good idea to keep the Product Description relatively short so it doesn't take up too much of the page. You can use a More Info Page to provide a more extensive description of the product. |
QB Import |
If you download order information into QuickBooks, use this field to set an item type and Sales Account, or leave it blank to not download any information about this product from ShopSite. (When you download order information into QuickBooks, ShopSite also includes information about the products in those orders.) If you don’t select an item type, QuickBooks will automatically assign it to the Service Item type and you will not be able to change it in QuickBooks. If you are unsure which type to select, choose Non-inventory part item, because QuickBooks allows you to change that type later. |
Weight |
If you are using weight-based shipping (including UPS or FedEx), you must enter the weight for your product here so that ShopSite can calculate shipping costs. Do not specify a unit of measurement (pounds, ounces, kilograms, etc.), but use the same unit of measurement for all products in your store. |
Dimension Options |
If you are using a shipping option that uses specific package sizes as part of the shipping cost calculation (such as UPS, FedEx, or a Custom Shipping Add-On), you may need to specify the dimensions of the package this product will ship in. If you specify a package size here, ShopSite will calculate the shipping costs as if the package were being shipped individually (even if multiple packages could be shipped within a single larger box). You have three options for specifying product package dimensions:
- Select the radio button to Ship by weight only if this product is relatively small and light-weight, and could be shipped in a package with other products in the order. ShopSite will calculate the shipping cost as if all products (up to the specified maximum package weight, if there is one) in an order were being shipped in a single package.
- Select the radio button beside the LxWxH Text Box to specify the dimensions of the package for this product. Use this option if this product will not fit in a standard-size shipping package. Enter each of the package dimensions into the text-box, separated by an x (for example, if the package is 34 inches long, 14 inches wide, and 7 inches high, you would enter 34x14x7).
- Select the radio button beside the Standard Package Pull-down if this product will be individually packaged inside one of your standard package sizes. Use the pull-down menu to select from one of the standard package sizes configured on the shipping configuration screen.

This is a per-item charge (if this product has a handling charge of $1 and a customer orders 3 of this product, the customer will be charged $3) that will be added to any per-order handling charges configured on the Shipping Configuration screen. |

If you have either Base Shipping or Base Plus Shipping selected in the shipping options, you will see each of the configured shipping methods listed. Enter the shipping charges for each of the methods selected. |

The text-box will also be displayed with the product in the Shopping Cart contents.
