Measure Up: Selling by Volume & Liquids

1. Open the Item Details

1. In the sidebar, click Items → Item List.
2. Select the product you want to sell by measure (e.g. “Wine Bottle”).

2. Choose Your Selling Approach

Scroll to the Sold by section and pick one of two methods:

• Weight/Volume – Sell each unit by a precise metric amount (grams, milliliters, meters).
• Composite item – Define a serving size as a small bundle of your base unit (e.g. a glass from a bottle).

3. Configure Details for Each Method

A. Weight/Volume Mode

1. Sold by: Weight/Volume
2. Metric: Select from Gram, Kilo, Milliliter, Liter, Millimeter, or Meter.
3. Quantity per unit: Set the full unit size (e.g. 750 ml for a standard wine bottle).
4. On POS: Set the sold amount (e.g. 150ml per glass)

B. Composite-Item Mode

1. Toggle Composite item under Inventory.
2. Under Composed from other items, add your base unit (e.g. Red Wine Bottle).
3. Enter Quantity as a fraction (e.g. 0.2 for 150 ml of a 750 ml bottle).

4. Set Shop-Specific Pricing

• Under Stores details, check each location offering this item.
• Enter a Price (per sale unit or per bundle) for each store; leave blank to dynamically setting the price.

5. Save & Test in POS

• Click Save (or Update).
• In POS (Optional):
  
  • Weight/Volume mode prompts for the quantity (e.g. “150 ml”).
  • Composite mode lists your defined bundle (e.g. “Glass of Red Wine”).
