Ordoro will automatically import products from your sales channels. However, you may want to create products that only exist in Ordoro for a few reasons.

  • To keep track of packaging materials (boxes, shipping labels, etc.)
  • For product components not sold in your store.
  • You only create manual orders in Ordoro, i.e., we don’t import orders from your store.

The steps below list how to create a single product in Ordoro or multiple products in bulk.

Note: Ordoro is not a listing creator. Ordoro will not create the items in your sales channels.
