Feature request to add a private notes field on each product in the Shopify admin, visible and editable only by staff and not shown on the storefront. Intended use cases include recording low-stock situations, incoming restocks, and reminders to adjust pricing when new inventory has a higher cost.
Proposed functionality:
Shopify response: Support acknowledges the usefulness and will forward the suggestion to the development team. No commitment, timeline, or workaround provided.
Outcome and status: No implementation yet; the request is logged as feedback. The original poster expressed hope it can be included in a future update. Discussion remains open with no resolved action beyond escalation to developers.
Hi.
In the Store Admin, we would find it useful if there was a notes section for us to add private notes about the product for the staff.
E.g. we are running low on a stock, but we have more stocks arriving, but the price of the new stock has to go up, so adding a note to the admin to remind to check the price when increasing the stock.
So a box, for private product notes just in the admin that is not visible on the store front, but can be used and edited by admins.
Hey @DavinBrewbitz .
Thanks for reaching out and providing that context.
I can certainly see how allowing you to add private notes on the product page of the Shopify dashboard would be beneficial for you and your business. With that being said, I am going to provide this thread to our developers as a suggestion to include. We appreciate you taking the time to reach out with this feedback!
Let me know if you have any questions.
Cheers Ollie. Hopefully it’s something very simple and can be incorporated in a future update.
