2. Click + New Product.
3. Select the Table Product type.
4. Provide the requested information in the Details section:

• Indicate the product name to be displayed to customers.
• A unique alphanumeric code (Stock Keeping Unit) is automatically generated according to the product name. Each variant of the product has its own unique SKU. This enables you to differentiate between products and effectively manage inventory. You can edit the SKU code according to your preferences.
