Why a Smooth Product Setup Matters

Before diving into the steps, let’s talk about why this matters:

  • First impressions count – A well-organized product page boosts trust and conversions.
  • Time is money – The faster you list products, the sooner you start selling.
  • SEO & discoverability – Properly filled-out product details help customers find you.

Now, let’s get your products live!

Step-by-Step: Adding Products to Your Odoo Store

1. Navigate to the Products Dashboard

  • Log in to your Odoo backend.
  • Go to Inventory > Products (or Website > Products if using Odoo eCommerce).
  • Click Create to add a new product.

2. Fill in Basic Product Details

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Product Name – Keep it clear and descriptive (e.g., “Wireless Bluetooth Headphones” instead of just “Headphones”).
  • Product Type – Choose between:
    • Storable Product (physical items with inventory tracking).
    • Consumable (products you don’t track in stock).
    • Service (e.g., consulting or digital services).
  • SKU/Barcode (optional but helpful for inventory management).

3. Upload High-Quality Images

📌 Pro Tip: Use bright, high-resolution images (1200x1200 px recommended) to showcase your product.

  • Drag and drop or click Upload to add product photos.
  • Set a main image (the first one customers see).

4. Set Pricing & Inventory

  • Sales Price – Enter the selling price.
  • Cost – For profit tracking (optional).
  • Inventory – Set initial stock levels or enable dropshipping.

5. Write a Compelling Description

A good description:
✔ Highlights key features & benefits (not just specs).
✔ Uses bullet points for easy scanning.
✔ Includes SEO-friendly keywords (e.g., “comfortable wireless earbuds for gym & travel”).

6. Categorize for Easy Browsing

  • Assign a product category (e.g., “Electronics > Audio”).
  • Add tags (e.g., “Bluetooth,” “Noise-Canceling”) to improve searchability.

7. Publish to Your Online Store

  • Under the Sales tab, check “Available in eCommerce”.
  • Hit Save—your product is now live!
