Product Brands
You can use product brands to organize your products by brand when creating new ones, and you can also view and filter by brand name in sales reports. There are two ways to add new product brands. You can create them before you begin adding a product, or create them during product setup without leaving the setup screen.

If you are an Enterprise client and are setup with Master Products (where mulitple websites share a single set of products across all the websites) you will be required to set the producing winery when creating a brand. This will allow marketplaces and other connected integrations to associate the correct brand with the correct winery, even if the wine is being sold on multiple websites or marketplaces. |

If you are using ShipCompliant for your compliance and tax needs, and have the ShipCompliant Product Sync enabled, then the ShipCompliant Brand Key will be a mandatory field. This key will be one that you have created in ShipCompliant to help tie the brand you have created in ShipCompliant to the brand you have created in Vin65. If you are unsure of what your brand key should be for a specific brand please contact your ShipCompliant rep or support@shipcompliant.com. |
