Click on Save and continue editing the product.

Recommended image format is PNG and maximum size of 200x200px.

8. Write a note about the product if necessary and useful for printing labels.

9. If this product is only available in certain stores, activate the corresponding button. 



Then indicate whether it belongs to a group of stores or an individual store.


Check the stores where you need the products.



9. Edit "Product Status". You can associate more than one Status with this product in the first column, then assign the Type of Label  and its Format.
