Product Library

The Product Library displays a list of product models added to the platform that allows brands to review, compare, edit, duplicate, or delete products. They can also add products to purchase orders here as well.

NOTE: 

You must first create a product in order to attach multiple purchase orders to the product.  

This table focuses on the physical parts that comprise a product, including the Materials, Components, and Packaging.

  1. Select the Ellipses to download an Account audit log CSV. This file provides a change log of all edits made to any products.

    It shows you: 
    • Which product was edited
    • When the edits were made
    • Who made the changes
    • Which fields were edited
    • What the old and new values are
    • What the outcome was (created successfully, the name of the new product, etc.)
  2. Download data for a single product or a large batch of select products. This enables you to download a customized csv file of your product library to ensure your purchased goods inventory accurately reflects all updates to your product entities.
  3. Check the Missing Info tick box to quickly identify and address missing Purchase Order data in your product library. This makes it easier to maintain high-quality, actionable inventory of your Purchased Goods.
  4. Search the Product Library by typing into the search bar. For example, you can search t-shirts to show all of your t-shirts in the product library.
  5. Sort the Product Library by clicking the arrows next to the column. For example, you can sort the Modified column for most recently modified products. You can also show or hide columns within the table.

     
  6. Group the Product Library by dragging a column header to the top of the table. For example, if your products fall under many different categories, this can help you organize your inventory more efficiently.
  7. Toggle between Compact and Normal views by selecting the toggle at the upper right corner of the table. You can change your view depending on your viewing preferences.
  8. You can also save a view by selecting Save Columns and giving a name to your view. Saving a view makes it easier to access an already customized table specific to your organization.
