What is an Item?

An Item represents a product that is sold to customers.

Items are used when creating orders and define what is being bought and sold within the system.

Items can also have tags assigned to them. Tags are used to group items into categories (such as chilled, frozen, or seafood), making it easier to filter and analyse data in reports.
