Product Creation
To create products, visit Shopify > Apps > SPOD app > and click the “Add product” button. Alternatively, you can achieve the same thing by clicking “Products” in the vertical left-hand menu and selecting "Create Spod product" from the "more actions" dropdown.
Selecting one of these two options will load the design tool automatically, allowing you to start creating your design. Add text and/or designs or upload your own image files. When you have finished creating your product, you will define the price.
How much you earn per item is determined by how much you choose to charge the customer versus your costs for the product. e.g. If your costs are $8.00 and you set your price at $18.00, you earn $10.00 per item. Finally, define any tags, names, and descriptions for your product (these fields are prefilled).
When these steps have been completed, click the “Save” at the bottom of the page, and your new product will automatically be synced to your Shopify store. This process could take some time based on the number of product colors you are activating. To check the product’s upload status, refer to the panel on the right side of the screen.
You’ll have the ability to create new products while your completed products are being synced to Shopify.
Product Publishing/Unpublishing
When you create a product, the status is automatically set to “published” by default. To unpublish the product, you’ll need to change its status to “unavailable ” in the Shopify products overview page. Simply click the “Actions” tab and click “Make products unavailable.”
Alternatively, during the product creation process, you are given the choice to either immediately publish your product or to publish it manually later. On the right side of the screen, click the “Manage” button under “Sales channels.” Here, you can choose whether the product is sent to your online store.
If you wish to remove a product permanently from your Shopify store, select the product, click “Actions,” and select “Delete selected products.”
