Products

The page products shows a list of all products in the active data source. In addition, you can search with specific selection criteria for products. Each record can be edited individually. Simply click on a title!

Vorhandene Produktdaten im Datenpool sind Voraussetzung um eine CSV- oder API-Schnittstelle nutzen zu können. Siehe dazu auch unsere Informationen in der Schnellanleitung...

Category Selection / Search

Category Selection - Lets you choose a pre-selection for the search in the active Data Source . You can search for records in certain categories, in order to edit them specifically. The selection of records with no assignment to any internal category, is also possible ('Products w/o Category Assignment'). Several records can be selected and assigned to a desired category.

Watch out!
The assignment of a record to at least one internal category is an important precondition for exporting your data (including shop categories) later.

Suchbegriff - Geben Sie einen Suchbegriff ein oder nutzen Sie die Suche wie folgt:

1. neu - sucht alle Neuzugänge (wenn vorhanden)
2. unbenannt - sucht Artikel ohne Titel, Text in eckigen Klammern - [Suchwort] - sucht den genauen Text "Suchwort"
3. OR - gibt Artikel zurück, wo mindestens eines der Suchwörter gefunden wird, getrennt durch Leerzeichen. Beispiel: 'OR rot blau'
4. AND - gibt Artikel zurück, in denen alle Suchwörter gefunden werden, getrennt durch Leerzeichen. Beispiel: 'AND rot blau'

All Products

Have already been records imported or created, you see here a list of your products. Sorting is done via the columns ID, Name, Price or Inventory.

Detail Page

To edit the properties of a single product, either click on the ID, the name or on the [Actions] button. You will be directed to the details page of each product and can edit the individual properties there.

General

• ID, Parent ID, EAN / GTIN, ISBN, inventory, packaging unit, price, old price, MSRP, purchase price, base price, base price unit, base price content, VAT, weight, height, length, width, height, vendor ID, manufacturer SKU, external URL for product, date, text information, (free data fields) and cross-data among others

If you are missing certain fields or columns, you can add them subsequently (separated by data source) by using the function free fields / variations in Data Pool->Preferences->Data Sources. Of course, ideally all content should be imported/ modified using the import function.

Master Data

• Name, Keywords, Descriptions

product name or title, product descriptions, more attributes

When using JavaScript in the field Description there can be problems with the preview, depending on the code. Consult the support in such cases.

Category

• Product in internal Category

In case you have imported internal categories (ie categories that you transfer so directly in the data pool) via DATAPOOL->Data Import, you can assign your product here to one of these internal categories. Then, you enter your shop categories for the CSV file under Interfaces->Category Mapping and map them to the internal categories from the data pool. Internal categories should be established in any case when several different CSV files are imported into the data pool and all the records shall be exported via one interface.

• External Category 1-5

These fields are for so called external categories, if you import products with existing category names or category IDs from an external system via DATAPOOL->Import Data. This makes it possible, in a time saving manner, to imort several thousand records with matching (external) category assignments in the data pool. In this case, it is no longer necessary to create internal categories manually and to assign the products from your data pool to them individually.

Tip: You should only work with external categories, when you need to import many records from a large CSV file to then (under Interfaces->Export Settings) convert them into another CSV structure.

Images

Image name or Image URL

Please use only "direct" image links to include an image. Forwarding image paths can cause errors.

Language 2-10

Cells for additional Languages

Additional languages must be activated by you under "My Account -> Base Settings -> Data Source -> Actions -> Language Sub-Sets". Insert there e.g. the value English into the field Language 2 . On the product page you will then see a new tab [English] with the respective fields of this language.
