How do I add a new product while serving a customer on Veira?

Updated June 2026

Short answer

You can add an item on the fly so the queue does not stall, then tidy its details, price and stock count later. The goal is that a missing product never holds up a sale, while your catalogue still ends up complete and accurate.

More detail

New lines arrive mid-day, and a system that forces a full product setup at the counter creates a queue. Adding quickly and refining later keeps the customer moving.

Set a quick reminder to complete the product's stock and category afterwards, so the convenience does not leave gaps in your inventory numbers.
