Overview

Product Catalogs are organized into categories under different Classifications and Classification Groups. Catalogs, Products and Attributes can be located and displayed using the Classification Browser.

Tree and List (Search) styles are implemented on two different tabs within the Classification Browser.

The browser screen is divided into two sections: one containing the tree/list and another containing the list of attributes assigned to the selected Classification Group.

By default, the Classification Browser provides an outline that presents a hierarchical display of the various Classifications available as a tree view.

Click an item or branch to drill down and view the number of Classification Groups under each category. An item can be expanded to reveal sub-items, if any exist, and collapsed to hide sub-items by clicking on the respective  minimize or  maximize icons.

Click the Classification Group to view associated attributes in the right section of the Classification Browser.

You can view the sub groups of the selected Classification/Classification Group by clicking the Sub Groups tab.

To switch the Classification/Classification Group Search, select the Search tab.
