To create a Product in the product catalog, to access to the
product catalog you can go to the menu on the right and then select the option
product catalog
Here you have 2 options, you can either create a Product manually by clicking
on the option new item
Or you can upload a CSV file to create products in bulk
If you use the option new item, you will have the following view, from here you
need to complete the information mark with a red asterisk which is the
mandatory information, you will also need to turn on the switch for FDA Prior
Notice
The product code is something for your reference, for you to identify the
product and is going to be the product ID
Then you will see the FDA data that is required for the product
You will also see the Affirmation of Compliance, which are extra information
the FDA may require such as the PFR - Manufacturers food facility
registration number, if you don't have an exception can be submitted in
the FME - Food Processing Facility Registration Exemption.
The red dot means an AoC is required
After this you will see the Parties information, from here you will have 2
options, you can either enter all the party information like name and address,
or you can use the option load from. Load from means the information will be
taken from the Prior notice upload, so it needs to be entered in the Prior
Notice.
I advise you to add the Parties information directly in the catalog if the
parties are not changing and they are the same every time the product is used,
if the parties are changing Is better to use the load from.
Once we have all the mandatory information, we save the product and use
the The product code to identify and provide under our file
