Zubi Knowledge Base

Code field

The Code field is the identifier used by Zubi to find this item in the database. The code needs to be unique amongst the items within the finished products module.

Zubi will suggest a code for you to use and this will display in the Code field. If you already have a code you want to use to identify this finished product just overwrite the prefilled code with the one you prefer. Just remember that it needs to be unique. If it has already been used Zubi will not save the finished product.

Name field

The Name field is for the name of the finished product. It's what you'd call it.  

Be aware this product name transfers onto the product label or report so choose a name that others will understand.  

Description field

The Description field is an optional one that you may want to use to supplement the name field. As the contents of the description field appear in search results, you could use it to identify the name of the team member entering the data, whether it is a seasonal variation or any other information useful to staff.

Brand field

You can choose to add a brand to the product by picking a brand for the drop-down list or by typing a new one. 

To learn about adding extra suppliers see here

Country of Origin

You can choose options for the Country of Origin statement. The first drop-down gives options such as "Made in" etc, and the second drop-down is where you choose the country that applies.

Display Country of Origin

Uncheck this box if you do not require the country of origin to appear on the label.

You can also edit the address field from within a product. This is useful for a company that owns several brands which have different addresses.

Barcode Field

This field was previously used to record the barcode for this product. The location of barcodes has recently moved to the NIP/Size tab. Information entered here will not appear on the label/report. 

We are working to remove the barcode field from this location and apologise for any confusion caused in the meantime.
