Next you will need to fill in the main descriptive details about the product you are about to add.

Give the product a name, this is required.  (If you used the 'add a simple product' form this will already be there).

Other optional fields include internal product ID if you are using one, if you are using stock levels, put in the number of items you have in stock and unit of measure if you require it.

Another important field to fill in is the long description. This is where you can add a summary about the product you are selling.

Add in the price of product you are selling. If you have no price then put in 0 and the product will display on the front of your website but wont be able to be purchased. Users can enquire about the product. The price will be displayed as POA.

If you want the product to have a special price you can add this in the Special Price field.

If you require a different tax rate for this product, you can indicate this if required.

You can also exclude products from discounts so your store wide discounts wont apply to the product if required.

Make sure you select a category for your product. You can put your product multiple categories if you require them to be in different categories in your store.
