Adding Style Items to a Collection

Access the Collection Detail form.

To add style items to a collection:

  1. Select the lowest level of the collection and select Add Style Items from the Row menu.

    Note: If the lowest level of the collection is not selected, then you will not be able to perform any action from the Row menu.

  2. Enter the style items or other criteria that you want to find in the Query By Example (QBE) line at the top of the grid and click Find.

  3. Select the style items that you want to include in the collection by selecting the check box in the row header for each and clicking Select. If the style root level 0 item is selected, then its corresponding child items will be added to collection.

    Selected rows display in aqua color highlight in the grid.

    Note: Depending on how you set the Allow Same Item in Different Collection Levels processing option, you may or may not be able to select the same item for multiple collection levels (subcollections) belonging to a collection. If the processing option is blank, you can select the same item for multiple collection levels; if the processing option has a value of 1, you cannot.

  4. You can also use the options above the grid to see all of the attributes associated with a particular style item and narrow down the style items to include in the collection at a lower level.

    For example, if you select color, all of the colors associated with the style item are displayed in the grid. You might then select size; all of the sizes with respect to the color of the style item are displayed. If you have already included the style item with the color black in the collection, all of the sizes associated with the color black have a green check mark showing that they are all associated with the collection.

  5. To deselect a particular style item, click the check box in the row header for each and click Select and the style item will be removed from the collection. The row initially displays in red color highlight. The row becomes gray after you click Find.

  6. After you have selected all of the style items that you want to include in the collection, click Close.

  7. To verify that your style items have been added, select View Style Items from the Row menu.
