With the worldwide developments in the digital world, your business will need to adapt to these changes in order to continue to expand.
That's why we established this feature to assist small and medium-sized enterprises in setting up a ready-to-launch online store on Dizlog App that anybody can use.
Follow the steps:
1. Set-up Inventory
What's an online store when there is nothing to buy? The first thing to do is to add a product/services. This is the list of where your customer can choose what they would like to buy or book from.
To start creating an Inventory:
Choose the "📦 Manage Stocks" option from the left pane under Stock Inventory/ Catalog Mgmt.
From the Inventory Type list, tap on your selection.
F&B SERVICES: If you are a restaurant, a cafe, or a food house offering food and beverage items.
GOODS: If you have a retail or online store selling grocery, convenience store or clothing items.
OPERATIONS SUPPLIES: are items you need in order to operate your shop, these are not items for sale. (ex. If you are running a restaurant and you use oil to cook, this oil will be tagged as operational supplies and won’t be sold on your shop)
SERVICES: If you are offering consultancy, professional or service businesses such as dental and physician clinic services, salons, laundromats and other shop repair services.
DIGITAL PRODUCTS: These items are frequently available as downloadable or streamable digital files, such as MP3s, PDFs, movies, plug-ins, and templates.
RENTAL SERVICES: if you are operate with users paying a fee in exchange for hourly, daily or weekly use of a rental item
