How to add a new product in Square and assign it to a category in Per Diem

Here’s how to make sure your new product appears correctly in your app:

‍Step 1: Add the Item in Square

Create your new item in Square like you normally would—name, price, description, photo, etc.

‍

‍Step 2: Head to the Per Diem Dashboard

Log into your Per Diem dashboard and navigate to the Items page.

‍

‍Step 3: Find Your New ItemYou can either:

• Use the search bar to look up the item by name (e.g. “Matcha Latte”), or
• Use the filter to show only Hidden Items.

‍

Step 4: Make the Item Visible

Click into the item and mark it as Visible so it shows up in your app.

‍

‍Step 5: Assign the Item to a Category

While you’re still on the item page, assign the product to the correct Category in Per Diem (e.g. “Drinks” or “Hot Beverages”).

And that’s it—your new item will now appear in your app, under the right category.
