Catalogue setup for pet supplies shop: decide what one quantity means
Separate animal type, product size and food pack weight. Keep accessories such as collars distinct by size.
Use the labelled sale pack and enter supplier and batch information where applicable. The catalogue is a stock record, not permission to dispense or supply regulated goods.

Load and rehearse in this order
- Check that Pet food sealed 2 kg has a clear name, unit, price and unique item code.
- Distinguish Pet bowl from Pet food sealed 2 kg; a similar name must not hide a different pack.
- Count usable Pet food sealed 2 kg units and record that physical opening quantity.
- On sample records, sell two Pet food sealed 2 kg units and confirm only that item reduces by two.
- Review the receipt and backup before entering real business records.
Correct the catalogue without hiding a stock difference
If Pet food sealed 2 kg was named incorrectly, correct the name. If its quantity is wrong, investigate the count and record an explained adjustment. Editing a price or changing a description does not explain missing units. Keep old transactions readable when deciding how to rename an item.
