Fill out the following required fields

1. Name - The name you want your product to appear as on your dashboard.
2. Type - Snacks, Food, Drinks, or Misc. These categories determine how your products are displayed in your sales charts on your dashboard. If you have purchased a consumer smartphone app, this determines how your products are organized in the app.
3. Final Price - Your desired sales price of the product. Our system does not calculate tax. If you charge sales tax, please include in this price. NOTE: If you wish to offer a discount later, do not change the price here, rather, see <a href="https://help.launchfoodspot.com/en/articles/8443381-manage-promotions">instructions for offering a promotion</a>.
4. Expired After - As soon as an item is stocked into your fridge, the system begins counting down to its expiration based on what you enter here. From the drop-down menu, set the terms of the item’s expiration:
 1. Using Days and Hour ( i.e. 4 days)
 2. Using Date and Time (i.e. September 4, 2025) - NOTE: for this expiration scheme, you will need to re-enter a date every time you scan a new batch of this product into the system. For shelf-stable items, we suggest selecting an arbitrary date far into the future.
 3. End of Next Day
5. Date: Enter the expiration date or period in the field below.
