Product Module Overview

Dispensary Tree supports two product types: Simple Products and Custom Products.


Product Types

Simple Products

Simple Products are standard retail items that do not use ingredients from your catalog. These products are pre-made and can be shipped or handed to the customer without any dispensing or formulation.

Common examples include:

  • Vitamins and minerals

  • Probiotics

  • Soaps and topical products

  • Prepackaged teas

  • Liniments and massage oils

Simple Product Variants

Variants allow you to sell the same simple product in multiple versions, such as different sizes, weights, or formats.

  • Each simple product can have unlimited variants

  • Each variant can have its own price


Custom Products (Herb Products)

Custom Products are created using single ingredients and/or premix formulas from your catalog. These products are not pre-made and are prepared at the time of order, similar to fulfilling a custom formula.

Examples include:

  • Selling a fixed quantity of a single herb (e.g., 454 g / 1 lb)

  • Selling a predefined herbal blend or formula

  • Selling a premix formula without allowing modifications

When a Custom Product is ordered, inventory is deducted from specific lots or batch numbers during fulfillment.


Pricing Custom Products

Each Custom Product uses one pricing method only. The available pricing options are:

1. Fixed Amount, Fixed Price

You define both the quantity and the total selling price.

Examples:

  • 100 g for $10.00

  • 200 mL for $25.00


2. Fixed Amount, Variable Pricing

You define the quantity, but the price is calculated automatically based on the selling price per unit of each ingredient in the product.

Example:

  • Selling 1 oz, 2 oz, or 5 oz sizes

  • The system calculates the total price using ingredient quantities × selling price per unit


3. Variable Amount, Variable Pricing

The end user selects the total quantity or volume, and the system calculates the price based on ingredient selling prices.

  • Admin sets minimum and maximum allowable quantities

  • Final price adjusts dynamically based on quantity


This structure allows dispensaries to sell both retail-style products and fully dispensary-managed herbal products with flexible pricing and inventory control.
