View Your Store List & Purchasable Quantities at Stores
- Visit Your Brand Page
- Click the link "Browse inventory for this brand" (between the products and user reviews)
- See the "Avail. Qty." column for the maximum amount a customer can order
This reports the amount that can be purchased, not store inventory. They are often the same, but not always.
Non-POS store menu website platforms (e.g. Leafly, Weedmaps) do not have access to this information, so it is not available to WeedStores.
Designate Canonical Products
- Visit Your Brand Page
- Click the link "Browse all XXX products from this brand" (between the products and user reviews)
- In the product search, for View Type, select "Admin View"
- For Sort Results By, select "Number of Stores Descending"
- Select a Product Category
- Press "Search"
- For each actual distinct real-world product, identify ONE listing to be the "Canonical Product".
- Copy the "ID" of the Canonical Product to your clipboard.
- Paste the Canonical Product ID into the "UseID" box for every row that represents the same product (including the Canonical Product row).
- Press "Search" again to refresh the listing. Note the store counts increase as consolidation works its magic.
You do not need to "save", it updates as you make changes to the "UseID" field. Press the "Search" button to refresh the listings
after assignments are made.
If you have a large product catalog, adding a word or phrase in the "name" box can help filter to a managable sized list.
Use these Pro Tips if your product list spans several pages:
- Always set Product Category in the search
- Use two windows side-by-side, both with search configured as described above.
- One window is the List Window, the other is the Working Window.
- Scroll down until you see non-canonical products.
- In the working window, type a word or phrase into "Name" and press "Search".
- Consolidate products in the Working Window, adding or adjusting search terms to keep the list length manageable.
- Super Pro Tip: Use on-page search (in the browser, control-F) to highlight attributes like "100mg" or "high dose" among the list.
If you make a mistake, do not panic! Tt can be corrected. Reach out to support for help.
