# Product catalog

# Product Catalog Management

The Product Catalog is the central hub for managing your apparel styles, SKUs, and unique identifiers (GTINs).

***

## 1. Adding Products

You can add styles to your catalog in two ways:

### Manual Creation

1. Click **Add Product** in the top-right of the Product list.
2. Provide the product name, unique SKU, GTIN, and category (e.g., Activewear, Outerwear, Accessories).
3. Add a consumer-friendly description.

### Bulk CSV Import

If you have a large catalog, navigate to **Import Catalog** and upload a CSV file containing your styles.

Your CSV must include the following headers exactly:

```csv theme={null}
sku,product_name,gtin,category,description
```

> \[!IMPORTANT]
> **GTIN Requirements**: All GTINs must be valid GS1-compliant codes (e.g., 14-digit GTIN-14, 13-digit EAN-13, or 12-digit UPC). These identifiers form the basis of the GS1 Digital Link standard used for public scans.

## 2. Product States

Passr supports three states for managing product lifecycles:

| State         | Visibility    | Description                                                                                                      |
| :------------ | :------------ | :--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **DRAFT**     | Internal Only | Visible only to your team members. The public passport QR code is inactive and shows a preview page if scanned.  |
| **PUBLISHED** | Public        | The passport is active. Anyone scanning the QR code or visiting the public link can view compliance disclosures. |
| **ARCHIVED**  | Internal Only | Preserved in the database for compliance record audits, but hidden from active product lists.                    |

***

## 3. Product Details Page

Clicking on any product opens its workspace. From here, you can access the **Compliance Locker**, view local scan history analytics, and configure custom care instructions for your consumers.
