Create Related Item Groups

A related items group is a set of items you can choose to recommend with other items in your web store.

For example, Wolfe Electronics creates a related items group that contains items like cables, extension cords and surge protectors. Wolfe Electronics chooses to display this related item group with monitors it sells in its web store. When shoppers view Wolfe Electronics' monitors, they can also view related products they might need.

To create a related item group:

Go to Commerce > Marketing > Related Item Categories > New.
In the Category field, enter a name for your related item group.

You will select this category name when adding related item groups to items later in Step 10.
In the Brief Description field, enter a short message describing this group.

This step is optional.
Go to the Basic tab and add an item from the list. Each item's brief description appears in the Item Description field.
Click Add.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 to add more items to your item group.
You can move items up and down to change the order they appear in your web store.
When you have finished, click Save.
Go to Web Site > Publishing > Items.
Click Edit next to the item with which you want to associate your related items group.
1. Go to the Related Items tab.
2. In the Related Item column, select the related item group from the list of categories.
3. Click Add.
Click Save.

Your related items group now appears with the item you are selling in your web store.

Note:

If you use multiple websites, note that items only appear on websites specified on the item record. For example, if you include item A and item B in the same related items group, then you must publish both items A and B to the same websites, if you want the two items to always appear together.
