The whole purpose behind an e-commerce website is to sell products or services. Spending more time than is necessary to maintain your product database takes away from being able to effectively market and promote your website.

The product management interface of StoresOnline Pro allows you to import product information, manage availability, mark featured products, and more. Plus, StoresOnline Pro’s inventory control measures track stock levels, record inventory depletion, and send email notifications when specified levels are met.

Through the filters of the StoresOnline Pro’s product management interface you can search through and edit hundreds, even thousands, of specific products. StoresOnline Pro’s filters, or tools, are used to search for a specific product or set of products. You may also search for products by their entire name, SKU, price set, or category.

While within StoresOnline Pro’s product management interface, you can specify which products are available, featured, or on sale by selecting the boxes of the checkmark, star, and currency symbol columns, by the click of your mouse. In addition, you may easily specify the regular and sale price each product.

Products can be added to your account one by one, or you may use the StoresOnline Pro Import feature. By way of Tab-delimited files, Excel Spreadsheets, or XML, you are able to import hundreds of products into your account at one time. StoresOnline Pro is adept to importing your products in all three formats, yet XML provides extensive control. Some of the benefits of exporting and importing product data using XML format include the following:

• It is easy to read and modify
• It is coded as a simple text file (meaning XML files can be created and edited using a simple text editor like Notepad, ConTEXT, etc.)
• It is easily imported into the StoresOnline Pro Product Database

Although this list is not inclusive of all the benefits derived from XML, it illustrates why this format is desirable for exporting, modifying, and importing into the StoresOnline Pro product database.

The StoresOnline Pro product management interface is equipped with an inventory control feature that will track the stock level of your products. When the specified warning level is met, you will receive notification of the depletion. Plus, through the StoresOnline Pro product management interface you can decide whether customers can order out-of-stock products.

StoresOnline Pro simplifies the Product Management process for you.
