This guide explains how to create, configure, and maintain Products in the PUQcloud Panel, including pricing, attributes, options, and module settings.

Overview

• Path: Menu → Products → Products

• You can: Create products, edit details, upload images, add prices, link attributes & option groups, choose a module, and control visibility/availability.

A Product is what your customers buy. Prices, options, and the provisioning module all live under the product.

4) Attributes

Attach predefined attributes that describe or parameterize the product (often used by modules or displayed to customers).

Manage Visibility & Lifecycle

• Set Hidden = On to keep the product out of public listings while you work.

• Use Retired = On to stop new sales but keep existing services intact.

• Control Stock to cap new orders when capacity is limited.

Best Practices

• Start with Hidden while configuring; unhide only after pricing and module are ready.

• Use clear, multilingual Name/Descriptions for customer understanding.

• Keep Pricing consistent across currencies (use Convert Price if appropriate).

• Keep option groups organized; put common groups (CPU/RAM/Disk) at the top.

• Test a full order path with a sandbox client before going live.

Troubleshooting

• Product not visible on site → Check Hidden and Retired toggles; ensure at least one Price exists.

• Options missing at checkout → Verify the groups are linked and visible for this product.

• Provisioning fails → Confirm Module is selected and all required fields are filled; review module logs.

• Wrong currency shown → Check the Pricing table and Convert Price setting.
