Requirements
This feature must be switched on for your site by Commerce Vision.
Overview
Product categories used on your website are initially integrated from your ERP, but if it suits your business processes, you can bypass ERP category integration and opt for complete online maintenance.
Selecting Integrated or Complete Online Category Maintenance
You can select either Integrated or Complete Online Category Maintenance mode. In Integrated mode, category maintenance except for exclusively online category features is done in the ERP. In the complete online mode, all category maintenance is done in the CMS.
Enabling the Online Category Maintenance feature will disable the Integrated Category Maintenance feature. It will also change your Category Maintenance display to group sub-categories under the parent category rather than list all categories individually. You will not be able to limit your display to custom or global categories. All other options remain the same.
Integrated Category Maintenance
- In the CMS, navigate to Settings → Feature Management → Products & Categories
- Toggle ON Integrated Category Maintenance and click Configure.
- In the Integrated Category Maintenance Settings, toggle ON Enable Integrated Category Maintenance. This enables the feature for your site.
- Configure setting options as required, then click Save or Save & Exit.
