	'''Name:''' The name is a unique name that helps the administrator identify the product. This name is not shown to shoppers.'''Active:''' By un-checking this check box you ensure that the product is not shown to any shoppers.'''Main image:''' The image you choose is the one that will be shown to shoppers on the main web shop pages to illustrate the product. When choosing to add main image using "Existing image" choice, the the list of images in the drop down shown will be those that exist on the images tab. In order to get more images in the drop down here you thus have to use the image tab features. There is another option than only choosing from the images on the image tab. By clicking "Find image" you can search for a folder or project in the system containing images. The images from the project or folder you then choose are the ones that will be available in the drop down. Depending on whether you choose move or copy, the product will either get the image that earlier belonged to the project/folder before (removing it from its original location) or a completely new copy will be made.'''Supplier: '''This will present a list of groups from your group resource list. If you cannot find the supplier of the product here you must go to the group list to add the supplier (or alternatively make sure you have access to view the supplier). You can also click the default button ensuring that your most used supplier will be shown here next time you need to add a new product.'''Non physical product:''' Products that do not need to be delivered to any specific address (e.g. donations) should have this check box checked. The result will be, that if anyone puts only non-physical products in their basket, then they will not be asked to specify a delivery address when they go through the payment wizard of the web shop.'''Product categories the product belongs to:''' You can here choose a category the product belongs to and then click the add button. You may add a product to ask many categories as you like. You can remove the product from the category again by highlighting it and clicking the remove button next to the add button.
