This article covers several product detail options that control how you use and sell some products in Vagaro.
Vagaro gives you options for managing your product inventory, whether you're selling products to customers at your store, online, or keeping track of products used in-house for services. You can track your product inventory, designate products that will only be sold in product bundles or used for packaginging (gift packaging and shipping materials.) Designate products that you'll sell through your Online Shopping Card (if activated) and set up shipping options and costs.
The options we'll be covering are:
-
Drop-ship (next section)
All these options are on the Product edit screen: → → . Either use → (at the top of the inventory screen) or when you edit an existing product ( → at the end of each product entry row.)
If you sell a product you don't want to or cannot stock in your business, you can set the Drop Ship switch to send an email to the product vendor instructing them to ship directly to the buyer.
When you set Drop Ship Product on, you'll see that the Do Not Track switch is also activated, and the system hides the fields for Quantity, Low Quantity Warning, and Max Quantity.
Drop Ship Product off (Do Not Track set to off)
Drop Ship Product on (Do Not Track set to on)
Currently, Drop Ship Product is only for use with products that are sold online, so remember to set Sell Product Online to On.
Tip
Check that the email you have on file for the drop ship vendor ( → → ) is the one to use for emailing these orders.
Tip
Please coordinate with your drop ship product's vendor before setting up Drop Ship for your online store. You should get information such as product dimensions and weight and what shipping options to offer from the vendor to set the Sell Online options for drop ship products.
Businesses can now sell products that are not tied to inventory. Examples of products you could set as "Do Not Track" are non-physical products, including fees (like Aroma Therapy and PPE fees) and items used in services but not tracked for inventory. Do Not Track is also used with Drop Ship Product because you do not have to track the inventory of items shipped to your customer from the vendor.
To set Do Not Track: From the product detail screen, in Track Product Inventory, set the switch to Do Not Track. Quantity, Low Quantity Warning, and Max Quantity fields are not shown when Do Not Track is on.
Do Not Track switch off
Do Not Track switch on (note Quantity fields hidden)
Set this switch if you have products you do not want to make available to customers. Setting it on removes the switch for Sell Product Online.
Use for products that are only sold as part of a Bundle. Setting it on removes the switch for Sell Product Online. See Creating Product Bundles for details.
When you have products you use for packaging: gift boxes, shipping boxes, or other shipping supplies that are not sold to customers alone or as part of a bundle, set this switch On. Setting it on removes the switch for Sell Product Online.
Set On for products that can be sold through your Vagaro Online Store. To use this, you must have set up your Vagaro Shopping Cart. (See Add the Online Shopping Cart.)
When you turn Sell Product Online on, you must enter shipping-related information about the product.
-
Dimensions (length, width, and height in inches)
-
Weight in pounds
-
Free Ground Shipping: Set on to allow free product shipping. The Shipping and handling surcharges will automatically display a $0 cost. If you do not want to offer free ground shipping, enter a shipping and handling cost.
-
To set a flat rate shipping price, select Flat Rate Shipping. Then enter a price for 1st Item Shipping Price and Additional Item Shipping Price (if used). For more about flat rate shipping, see Setting Shipping Costs for Online Product Sales.
