How to map non-coffee Products

This article explains how to create and adjust non-coffee Products, e.g. tea and also how to fulfill non-coffee orders.

📚 Learn how to map products from Shopify and WooCommerce/Beans.

All of the non-coffee products need to be grouped into Profile groups. It could be just one large Profile group e.g. Miscellaneous Product. In case of non-coffee products there's no need to roast anything, therefore you need to allocate your Packaged Inventory to complete your Orders.
