Create Product

NexoPOS allows you to create and manage products with flexibility. A product can be of three types:

Materialized Product: Physical items with stock (e.g., drinks, electronics)
Dematerialized Product: Services or non-stock items (e.g., repair service)
Grouped Product: A collection of multiple products sold together
