Lightspeed X Series | Importing Composite products
Composite products in Lightspeed X Series allow you to combine multiple individual products into one bundled product that can be sold as a single unit. This is useful for retailers who want to sell gift packs, meal combos, or product kits without manually tracking each component at checkout.
Instead of manually creating composites one by one, you can speed up the process by importing them in bulk using a CSV file.
Why Use a Composite Product Import?
-
Save time by creating multiple composite products at once.
-
Ensure consistency across your product catalog.
-
Quickly set up kits or bundles for promotions, gift packs, or multipacks.
Things to Keep in Mind
-
Composite products cannot have their own stock levels; they rely on the inventory of their components.
-
If a component runs out of stock, the composite will also be unavailable for sale.
-
You can always edit or update composites later by re-importing with the updated CSV.
