Knowledge Base: Getting Started with Catalogs

Catalogs are used to distinguish between various catalog structures. You can set up catalogs and categories, assign products to catalogs, and manage price groups.

For quick navigation:

 

How does catalog builder work?

In catalogs, you set up and manage catalogs while also handling categories. It’s worth noting that you view the catalog structure for one store at a time, which you can switch using the store picker dropdown.

catalog_builder

Using the catalog builder, you can navigate to find a specific category or create new catalogs and categories.

ℹ️ The first level block is always a catalog, and any subsequent levels are considered categories.

More about the categories

Category levels are configured per catalog and can be as wide and deep as you wish. In each category, you have the ability to create subcategories and place products.

The same product can be configured in multiple categories, catalogs, and stores without copying the product. You simply add another reference between the product and the category in question.

Price groups

Catalogs further control available price lists or price groups. You can also set allowed price groups for the catalog, enabling switching between multiple price groups for individual customers.

Examples of this would be easily enabling multi-currency scenarios, e.g. a price group per currency you wish to support. Or differentiated pricing scenarios by enabling multiple price groups with the same currency, but with the price overridden on a per-product basis.
