Comparing catalogs
A catalog comparison can be done by users with the authorization set Catalog manager as well as by users with the authorization set Purchaser.
- On the Catalog administration page, click the link Catalog comparison.
The Catalog comparison page is displayed.
- In the selection lists New catalog and Old catalog, select the catalogs you want to compare.
You can compare different catalogs with different price groups and currencies, however, the catalogs must belong to the same supplier. When you select a supplier in the list Suppliers, only the catalogs of this supplier are displayed in the selection lists New catalog and Old catalog.
- If you want to compare price groups, select them from the list boxes next to the catalogs.
- If necessary, you can enter tolerance values. The tolerance values determine the colour in the list of displayed products. All products with a price above the specified tolerance level are indicated in red (more expensive), products with a price below the specified tolerance level are indicated in green (cheaper), and products that fall within the tolerance values are displayed in grey.
- In the next section, you can select options for the comparison: activate the check-boxes if you want to compare active products, inactive products, approved products or products waiting for approval.
- In the list of products click the button:
- Continued to display products that are available in the new as well as in the old catalog.
- New to display products that are available in the new, but not in the old catalog.
- Deleted to display products that are in the old but not in the new catalog.
The products that result from the comparison will be displayed in the list. For continued products, you can compare the old price with the new price. The column Deviation shows the difference between the old and the new price in percent. Select the menu item Help to see detailed information on the product list.
- Click the name of the products to see the price history. The page Price history is displayed. Select the menu item Help to display detailed information about this page. The prices of the new catalog are displayed at the top of the page, and the prices of the old catalog at the bottom of the page.
