What is a Custom Catalogue?

A Custom Catalogue is a set of products that are included in a custom category. It can contain products from the default catalogue as well as products that are not viewable in the main catalogue. As long as the product is in the ERP and available for sale, it can be added to a custom catalogue. Such catalogues are usually created for specific customers or special purposes. It can contain any number of products. Custom Catalogues are created online as ERPs generally do not support this functionality.


Custom Catalogues can be assigned at a user, customer or role level. A single user can have access to as many custom catalogues assigned to them as required. Also, a user can be denied access to the global (main) catalogue so that the custom catalogue is the only set of products the user can access.

When would a Custom Catalogue be used?

Custom Catalogues can be used to limit the products a customer can see. Often this is done at the request of the customer where they request that their users only be able to purchase a certain set of products from your website. It simplifies the product offering and also allows your website to offer compliance with your customers needs.

Custom Catalogues are also used to display custom products to customers. This can also be achieved with stock security.
