Whenever you work on commerce assets in Merchandising, you begin by creating a project based on one of the available Merchandising project types in the Business Control Center. The type of project determines the workflow you use to perform project tasks and the assets and views that are available to you in Merchandising.
To start a new Merchandising project:
Start the Business Control Center.
In the Operations list, Click Merchandising, then click Manage Commerce Assets.
This project type provides access to all parts of Merchandising used for creating, modifying, organizing, and deleting commerce assets, including Search Merchandising assets, if applicable.
Enter a name (up to 50 characters) and description for the project.
It is a good idea to use a distinctive name so that you and other merchandisers can easily distinguish projects. Project names do not have to be unique, however. The description is optional but can be helpful if many projects have similar names.
Click Continue.
Merchandising appears, with the Author task active. You can now start creating and editing assets, which automatically adds them to the project. See Creating and Managing Assets to start working with your catalog.
