Faster navigation, flexible editing, and new channel templates

• New features and improvements released last month •

Last month we've launched features to help you streamline product navigation, simplify product family editing, and connect with your preferred Feed Management Tool. Watch the video below to learn how these updates can save you time and improve your workflow.

Nested Navigation Between Parents and Variants

Forget about having to open new tabs for simple tasks; we’ve added a navigation bar at the top of a product's detail page, so you can switch between parents and variants without ever leaving the page.

• How it works: When you’re on a parent or variant’s detail page, you’ll see a navigation bar at the top. “Level 1” is your parent product, and “Level 2” lists its variants. Click on the dropdown to access all variant SKUs linked to the parent. Want to go back to the parent product? Just click on “Level 1.”

On-the-go Product Family Editing

Instead of navigating back to Family Settings each time you need to add a new attribute to a product family, you can now do it directly from a product’s detail page. This is especially helpful for keeping your families updated when editing relevant attributes.

Here’s how:

• Option 1: Hover over any a non-family attribute and select “Add to family.”
• Option 2: Click on the family editor and choose “Add attributes to this family.”

Once you add the attribute, you’ll be prompted to set the inheritance status, allowing you to decide if values should be inherited by variants from the parent or kept unique for each product.

Ten New Feed Management Tool Templates

We’ve added 10 new templates to make it easier to set up your channels and manage product data across sales platforms.

With Plytix, your product information stays centralized, accurate, and distribution-ready. Now, when setting up a channel, you can select from a set of pre-configured Feed Management Tool templates. These templates include the most commonly used fields for each tool, so all you need to do is match them to your Plytix attributes. 

How to get started:

1. Choose a template when creating your channel.
2. Map the fields to your Plytix attributes.
3. Add any additional fields as needed based on your product types.
4. Process your channel to get a ready-to-upload feed for your feed management tool.

Here are all the Feed Management Tool templates you can choose from:

• Feedonomics
• Channable
• Channel Engine
• Datafeed Watch
• Products Up
• Shopping Feed
• Lengow
• Channel Pilot Pro
• GoData Feed
• BeezUp
