Product Suppliers, Categories & Sub-Categories

Posted
Updated

Once you’re connected to Promodata, you’ll see a list of suppliers laid out in a selection tree. From here, you can either select a supplier’s entire product range or handpick the specific categories and sub-categories you want to display on your website.

Good to know: Individual product selection isn’t an option here—however, you can manually hide specific items from display later if needed.

Your settings are applied as soon as you hit save.
Your selections will be visible in your website catalogue right after the next nightly sync.

Range Selection

To the right of each supplier’s name, you’ll find a search box to help you filter things down:

  • Quick Search: If you already know the suppliers category you want to activate, just start typing its name and the results will appear.
  • Select Everything: Click the down chevron on the right side of the supplier search box and select All Categories to pull in that supplier’s entire range.
  • Get Granular: Click the right arrow (>) to the left of “All Categories” to drill down and choose exactly which categories and sub-categories to show in your store.

The search box will update to list your custom choices.

*A quick note on “All Categories”

Selecting “All Categories” activates everything the supplier offers at the moment you select it. If the supplier introduces brand-new categories or sub-categories down the track, these won’t be added automatically.

We recommend checking back regularly to activate newly added categories as they drop.

Tip:
If you know you previously selected “All Categories” for a supplier, but you now see individual categories listed in their selection window, that’s your cue that they’ve added new categories!

Deselection & Removing Suppliers

  • Removing Categories: If you want to remove specific categories or sub-categories from a supplier’s range, simply untick their corresponding checkboxes.
  • Removing a Supplier Entirely: Click the X on the right side of the search box to clear them out completely.

Always remember to hit Save Changes at the bottom left of your admin window when you’re done!
