Products Screen

Inventory -> Products

Updated this week

The Products screen in Brahmin Solutions is used to manage your product catalog at the product (grouping) level.

This view helps you organize your inventory into logical product families before working with individual SKUs (variants).


Use this screen to:

  • Browse and manage your product catalog

  • Group related variants under a single product

  • Assign categories, brands, and tags

  • Activate or deactivate products

  • Apply bulk updates across many products

  • Create and save advanced filtered views

Inventory quantities and transactional activity are tracked at the variant (SKU) level, but the Products screen provides a high-level catalog view.


What You See in the Products List

Each row in the Products table represents a Product, not an individual variant.

Common columns include:

  • Product Name

  • Category

  • Inventory Summary

  • Brand

  • Status (Active / Inactive)

  • Tags

Inventory Column (High-Level Indicator)

The Inventory column provides a quick stock signal for the variants under that product.

For example:

  • “0 in stock”

  • “0 in stock for 2 variants”

To view exact SKU quantities, navigate to Inventory → Inventory.


Searching Products

Use the search bar at the top of the screen to quickly find products by:

  • Product name

  • Brand

  • Category

  • Tags

Search is useful when working with large catalogs containing hundreds or thousands of products.


Filtering Products

Filters allow you to narrow the product list to specific groups.

Basic Filter Example

You can filter products by:

  • Status = Active

  • Category = Personal Cleansing

  • Brand = Afterspa

Filters appear above the table so you can always see what is currently applied.

Advanced Filters

Click Add filter + to build more advanced filtering rules.

Available filter types include:

  • Product Name

  • Description

  • Tagged with

  • Not tagged with

  • Brand

  • Category

  • Status

Advanced filters are especially useful for:

  • Auditing products missing tags

  • Reviewing inactive products

  • Managing a specific brand or category

  • Cleaning up product catalogs during onboarding


Saving Views (Custom Product Views)

Brahmin Solutions allows you to save filtered product views for quick access.

For example, you might create views such as:

  • Active Products Only

  • Products Missing Categories

  • Multipack Tagged Products

  • Brand: Afterspa Catalog

  • Inactive Products Archive

How to Save a View

  1. Apply your desired filters

  2. Click Save

  3. Name the view for future use

Saved views help teams stay consistent and avoid rebuilding filters repeatedly.


Creating New Products

To create a new product:

  1. Click New in the top-right corner

  2. Enter the product details (name, category, brand, etc.)

  3. Add variants (SKUs) under the product

Products should remain broad and generic, while variants hold operational detail such as size or color.


Bulk Actions on Products

You can perform bulk updates across multiple products at once.

Selecting Products

  • Use the checkbox column to select one or more products

  • Once selected, the Bulk actions menu becomes available

Available Bulk Actions

Product Updates

  • Activate Products
    Mark selected products as active and available for use

  • Deactivate Products
    Hide selected products from active lists without deleting them

Tags

  • Add Tags
    Apply tags for better organization and filtering

  • Remove Tags
    Remove tags from selected products

Assignments

  • Edit Category
    Update the category for selected products

  • Edit Brand
    Update the brand assignment for selected products

Bulk actions are ideal for efficiently maintaining large catalogs.


Exporting Products

You can export product lists directly from the Products screen.

Exports are useful for:

  • Catalog reviews

  • Data cleanup

  • Sharing product lists externally

  • Migration and audits

Click Export in the top-right corner to download your product data.


When to Use the Products Screen vs Inventory Screen

Use Inventory → Products when you want to:

  • Organize your catalog

  • Group related variants

  • Manage categories, brands, and tags

  • Perform bulk product-level updates

Use Inventory → Inventory when you need to:

  • Track stock levels

  • Manage SKUs and variant details

  • Set pricing, reorder points, and vendors

  • View availability and allocations


Best Practices

  • Keep product names generic (avoid size/color in product names)

  • Use variants for SKU-level tracking

  • Use tags and saved views to stay organized

  • Use bulk actions for faster catalog management
