Troubleshooting: Product Mapping & Visibility

Products Not Appearing in the AIQ ECommerce Menu

If products are missing from the AIQ ECommerce menu but still show up in search results or offers, the issue is usually related to missing or incorrect category mapping.

Common Cause:
The product does not have a properly assigned category or subcategory, or category mapping is disabled.


How to Fix

1. Verify and Add POS Mapping

  • Navigate to:
    Menu → Categories → [Your Category] → POS Mapping

  • Locate the product’s subcategory:

    • Open the product

    • Go to the Advanced tab

    • Copy the exact subcategory name (e.g., “Pre-Rolled Cannabis Joints”)

  • Paste that exact name into the POS Mapping field

  • Click Create

  • Click Save
