How to Add a New Product in Zelph

Zelph lets you manage your product catalog across multiple Shopify stores with a centralised and flexible interface — including support for variants, inventory sync, and pricing control.

✅ Step-by-Step: Creating a Product

1. Navigate to “Products”. From the sidebar, click Products > Create.
2. Fill in the Product Details:
   • Title: Name of your product
   • Description: Rich text description (use the toolbar for bold, headings, links, lists, etc.)
   • Handle: This is the product’s unique URL (auto-generated if left blank)
   • Media: Upload images (2048×2048px, max 5MB recommended)
3. Choose Store Syncing. Under Availability, tick which stores (e.g. “Zelph Shopify UK”) you want this product to sync to. You can sync the same product to multiple stores.
4. Organise Product & Shipping Info.
   • Add Type, Vendor, and optional Tags
   • Set optional Shipping & Customs defaults: country of origin, HS code, weight, weight unit
5. Click Create. Hit Create to save your product.

➕ How to Add Variants

To add variants like sizes or colours (e.g. UK 3, UK 4.5):

1. After saving your product, scroll to the Options tab.
   • Click New Product Option (e.g. “Size” or “Colour”).
   • Enter the Option Name (like Size).
   • Add each value (e.g. 3 UK, 3.5 UK, 4 UK, etc.).
2. Already have an option? Click Edit next to the existing option (e.g. “Size”) to add or update variant values.
3. When you add or edit values, Zelph will automatically generate the variant combinations under the Variants tab.

🧾 Editing Variant Info

Once variants have been created:

1. Click the Variants tab.
2. Click Edit next to any variant. In the popup, you can edit:
   • Title
   • SKU
   • Barcode
   • Shipping & Customs info: Origin Country, HS Code, Weight & Weight unit
   • Option value (e.g. Size = 4.5 UK)

Make sure to Save changes when done.

🔁 Real-Time Syncing with Shopify

Zelph syncs your product and variant data with all connected Shopify stores:

• ✅ Two-way sync: Changes made in Zelph or Shopify are reflected both ways.
• A product can be published to multiple stores (e.g. UK + EU) with a single inventory source.
• When a variant sells on one store, inventory is updated on all stores.

Example: You create 1 Medium Black T-Shirt and sync it to Shopify UK and Shopify EU. If it sells on the UK store, Zelph automatically deducts the inventory across all stores.

🔒 Subscribed Inventory

If you’re a retailer subscribed to a supplier’s product:

• You cannot edit the inventory quantity — only the supplier can adjust their stock.
• You can still list the product on your own stores under the agreed pricing terms.
