Associating Products with Catalog Categories
You add products to catalogs by associating them with categories that belong to those catalogs. For example, you may want to add a 7 oz. Filet Mignon product to the catalog category Food in the San Francisco Property Catalog. This is done using the Products view tab in the Catalog Administration screen.
To associate a product with a catalog category
NOTE: This procedure assumes the products (both simple and complex) that you want to associate with the catalog category are already defined. For information about creating products, see Creating Simple and Complex Products.
- From the application-level menu, choose View > Site Map > Catalog Administration > Catalogs.
- In the Name field in the Catalogs list, click the name of the catalog with which you want to associate a product.
- In the Categories list, select the category with which you want to associate a product.
- Click the Products view tab.
- In the Products list, click New.
- In the Add Internal Products dialog box, enter a query for the product you want, and then click Go or Cancel.
A dialog box appears with query results if you clicked Go, or with a list of products if you clicked Cancel.
- Perform one of the following:
- If the product appears in the Add Internal Products dialog box, select that product, and then click OK.
The product is added to the catalog category.
- If the desired product does not appear in the Add Internal Products dialog box, click New to create a new internal product.
- In the Products list, provide information for the fields.
The following table describes some of the fields.
NOTE: When you create a product in this manner, you can only create a simple product of resource type General. If you need to create a complex product or one of resource type Critical or Non-Critical, go to the Product Administration screen.
