Creating and editing user catalogs

In user catalogs you can view product data of one or several supplier catalogs. In the catalog editor, they can be selected individually from the data of one or several supplier catalogs. You can only order from a supplier catalog if a corresponding user catalog exists.

1. On the page Catalog administration click the link User catalogs.

   The page User catalogs will be displayed.

2. Click:
   • the button New entry to create a new user catalog
   • the icon to edit an existing user catalog

   The page catalog will be displayed. Select the menu item Help to display detailed information about this page.

3. Enter a name for the catalog in the field Name.
4. If the catalog should not be displayed to users, activate the option Do not display in the catalog overview. You should activate this option for example in case of a dummy catalog for freeform orders.
5. Select an original supplier catalog.
6. In the field Owning company please enter the name of the company that is responsible for the catalog.

   Note: If you select a company that has not been assigned to the catalog as catalog manager, you will no longer see the catalog in the overview and you will not be able to edit it.

In the section Authorization for buyer companies you can select those companies from the list Available buyer companies that are authorized to use the catalog, and click the icon to assign these companies. For more information on assignment, please read assignment lists in the manual General information for all users.

   This assignment only determines which company administrators are authorized to edit the catalog. To make the catalog available to companies and users, the company administrator must assign the catalog in the company profile or user profile.

   Note: If the assignment to your own company is cancelled, this can only be restored by a catalog manager of a super company assigned here.
