The Retail POS app downloads a copy of your products to your iPad so that it is faster to use, and allows you to continue to make sales in case you disconnect from the Internet.
When you make changes to your products, especially if you have been trading offline, you might need to download a new copy of them.
Normally, this process is automatic, but if data does not appear to be syncing, you can resync it manually three ways:
