PRODUCTS and MERCHANDISING

In WooCommerce, products are very easy to add and update. WooCommerce is a perfect option for stores of almost any type and is great for stores that have multiple different types of products they’d like to list (simple products, affiliate, downloadable, virtual, etc.). Adding new products will be a familiar process since it’ll create a custom post type for you. If you’re comfortable with adding new posts then you should be equally as comfortable adding new products. WooCommerce products get their own set of tags, categories, attributes, and shipping classes that will set them apart from each other. You can add unlimited products and categories, each with their own set of options and variations.

WooCommerce has great inventory management options that you can access from the product page. In the “Reporting” tab, you can view low and out-of-stock items. If you are a merchant who keeps small stock volumes, then you’d be glad to know that back orders are allowable. You can also enable alerts for low inventory and set specific stock information to customers.
