You add products in the Vireno console. A product needs a name and a VAT rate; everything else is optional. To sell it on the till, it also has to be on the till's layout.
Before you start
You're an owner or business manager. Branch managers see products but can't change them.
Your VAT rate. The console lists Finland's rates with what each covers: 13.5% for food, restaurant and café service, books and medicines; 25.5% for most goods and services; 10% for newspapers and magazines. If you're unsure which applies, ask your accountant.
Add the product
In the console, open Products and select Add product.
Type the Name, such as Cappuccino.
Type the Price, such as
4.20. Leave it empty if the price changes each time: the till then asks for it at the checkout. To sell by weight or time, change Sold per to Kilogram, Litre or Hour.Under VAT, select Add and choose the rate. If takeaway is taxed differently, turn on Different VAT for takeaway and choose that rate too.
Under Categories, choose a category, or select Add new category to make one.
Select Save at the top, or Save product at the bottom of the form.
To add several products in a row, select Save and add another instead.
Optional details
Receipt name: a shorter name for the receipt, up to 32 characters. Without it, the receipt prints the name, cut to 32 characters.
Description, up to 500 characters.
Product photo: a JPG, PNG or WebP under 5 MB.
Sold as: Goods or Service.
Variants: sizes or types with their own price, such as Small and Large. Select Add under Variants. Up to 20, each with its own name.
Modifier groups: extras such as milk or syrup. They show only after you've made a modifier group under Modifiers.
Put it on the till
Open the saved product from Products and look at On the checkout. If the till's layout has a group filled from the product's category, the product is already there. Otherwise select Add to a checkout layout, choose the page and select Add. Or add it in the layout editor: see Prepare the till layout.
Change or stop selling a product
Change it: in Products, open the product's menu and select Edit, make your change and select Save.
Stop selling it: turn off Sell on its row, or select Archive in its menu. It's no longer sold at any branch and moves to Archived. To sell it again, open it under Archived and select Restore product.
Change many at once: tick the products, then choose Update price, Update categories or Archive. Up to 500 at a time.
If something goes wrong
"Choose a VAT rate". Every product needs a VAT rate. Select Add under VAT.
"Enter the price as a number, like …". Type only the amount, as in the example, without the currency sign.
"This photo is too large. Use one under 5 MB." Use a smaller photo, or save without one.
"Give each variant its own name". Two variants have the same name. Rename one.
You don't see Add product. Only owners and business managers can add products.
