Instructions for using the plugin

Once you have successfully installed the plugin, you will need to create a new page in your online store for inventory management, in which you will paste the shortcode [webexpert_stock_management] that we provide to you and in the description of the plugin. We recommend that this page be password protected, to ensure the integrity of your store.

Then and every time a purchase is made in your physical store, through the new page you created and as long as you scan the product codes in the physical cash register, the products will appear on this page (barcode and feature image), together with the default subtraction action to reduce the quantity in stock. When the purchase is complete, click “Submit” to save the stock update changes.

Note that when scanning products, a new line is automatically created for the new product scan, so that the process is friendlier and faster. However, just in case there is a button to manually enter a new line for the next scan.

In case of incorrect scanning or product return, select the energy of the stock increase next to the corresponding field of the line you are interested in.
Do not forget to click “Submit”(the first button in the end of the image) at the end, so that the quantities in stock are successfully updated.
