Variant products let you manage multiple versions of the same product under one structure. Instead of creating separate product records for each size, color, or material, define attributes and let Kuvera Arc generate the variant combinations. ## Access Variant Products Go to the left navigation panel in Kuvera Arc. Click **Inventory** to expand the Inventory section. Select **Variant Products** from the Inventory sub-sections. The Variant Products page opens in the main content area. ## Page layout The Variant Products page includes tools for importing, creating, searching, filtering, exporting, and reviewing variant product records. Upload variant product records using a spreadsheet file. Create variants for an existing product or start a new product with variants. Find variant products by product name. Filter variant records by date range, stock status, or VAT amount. Control how many variant records appear per page. Download variant product records for reporting or review. ## Filter variant records Use filters to quickly narrow variant records when reviewing stock status, tax configuration, or product availability. Filter by On Stock, Low Stock, Moderate Stock, Out of Stock, or No Stock. Filter by No Tax or 13% VAT. Limit records to a selected creation or activity period. Apply selected conditions to update the variant table. ## Variant Products table The table lists base products and the number of variants created under each product. Product or variant code. Name of the base product that contains the variants. VAT percentage applied to the product. Total number of variants created under the product. Opens the full variant product details page. ## Export variant records Use **Export Data** to download variant product records. Export all variant product records. Export only the visible records, including any active filters. Export records in Excel format. Export records as a PDF report. Export records as comma-separated values. ## Create variants You can create variants for an existing product or create a new product with variants from the start. Use this path when the base product already exists and you want to add variants to it. Go to **Inventory** and open **Variant Products**. Click **Add New Variants** in the top-right area. Choose **Existing Item Variant** from the options. Use the **Product Name** dropdown to select the product for which you want to create variants. If no product appears in the dropdown, the product may already have variants configured. Use this path when the product does not yet exist and you want to create it with variants from the start. Go to **Inventory** and open **Variant Products**. Click **Add New Variants** in the top-right area. Choose **New Product with Variant** from the options. Click **Add Variants** in the confirmation popup. You are redirected to the Product List workflow. Complete the required product information and enable **Product Has Variants** to continue variant setup. ## Variant setup workflow After selecting an existing or new product, define attributes and generate variant combinations. Click **Add New Property** to define a variant attribute, such as Size, Color, Material, or Packaging. Enter the **Attribute Name** and one or more **Attribute Values**. Example: Attribute Name: Size, Values: Small, Medium, Large Click **Add New Property** again to define another attribute for the product. Click **Generate the Variants**. Kuvera Arc creates all possible combinations from the attributes you defined. Review generated variant names, purchase prices, and selling prices in the variants table. Click **Create Variant** to save all generated variants. Generated variant names are built from the selected attribute combinations. Headset Large Blue Headset Small Red Bottle 500ml Clear For existing products, purchase price and selling price values are pulled from the base product setup when variants are generated. You can update them individually after generation if needed. ## Import variant products Use **Import** to upload multiple variant product records using a spreadsheet file. Go to **Inventory** and open **Variant Products**. Click **Import** in the top-right area. Upload a **CSV**, **XLSX**, or **XLS** file containing variant product data. Match spreadsheet column headers to the required Kuvera Arc fields. Verify that spreadsheet values are connected to the correct variant fields. Complete the import to add variant product data into the system. Click **Download Sample** before uploading if you are unsure about the required format. Check for incorrect column formatting, missing required fields, misspelled headers, duplicate variant records, and incomplete attribute values before uploading. ## Product categories Product categories organize products into a clear structure. A well-planned category hierarchy makes products easier to search, filter, manage, and report on. Upload multiple product categories using a spreadsheet file. Create a top-level product group. Create a structured sub-level under an existing main category. Review categories that are disabled or inactive. ## Category table The category table shows category records and their hierarchy. Serial number of the category record. Name of the category or subcategory. Parent category this record belongs to, if applicable. Date when the category was created. Available management actions for the category. ## Manage categories Use **Edit Category** to update a category name or description. Save your changes after editing. Use **Disable Category** to remove a category from active use. Disabled categories remain visible for historical reference. Use the options menu to display categories that are currently disabled or inactive. Use **Import Category** to upload categories using a spreadsheet file. The import workflow follows four steps: **Upload File**, **Match Header**, **Match Fields**, and **Finalize**. ## Add categories Use main categories and subcategories to build a clear product hierarchy. A main category is a top-level group, such as Clothing, Electronics, Grocery, or Skincare. Use a main category when: * You are creating a new top-level product group * Products do not fit under an existing category * You need a clear foundation before adding subcategories A subcategory is a sub-level under a main category. Examples: * Clothing → Men, Women * Electronics → Laptops, Accessories Use a subcategory when: * A main category contains many different product types * You need more specific filtering or reporting * You want a cleaner inventory structure at scale Go to **Inventory** and open **Product Category**. Click **Add Main Category** or **Add Subcategory**. Enter the category name, select a parent category if creating a subcategory, and add an optional description. Save the category to make it available for product classification. Avoid creating too many main categories or excessive subcategory levels. Overly granular structures can make inventory harder to navigate and maintain. A well-planned variant and category structure improves inventory clarity, reporting accuracy, and long-term scalability as your product catalog grows.
