Create new products

When starting with product entry in PIM, it is recommended to use the import feature, especially if you have a large number of products to fill your catalog. Importing products is a convenient and efficient method to quickly enrich your catalog with a wide range of products.

By using the import functionality, you can easily upload product data in bulk, saving you valuable time and effort. However, if you prefer a more hands-on approach, you can also manually add products to your catalog. It is important to note that you can create three types of products in PIM: Singles, Bundles, and Variant Groups. 

Types of products

Single:
These are individual products with unique attributes and data.

Variant:
Different versions of a product, such as varying colors or sizes. You can manage variants within a variant group. A variant can only belong to one group at a time.

Variant Group:
Contains variants. Allows you to manage data common to all variants that will be inherited by the variants. Learn more about working with variant groups.

Bundle:
Bundles are products sold together, such as a computer and a monitor. Products in a bundle have a quantity attribute, which defaults to 1. Bundles can not contain other bundles. Learn more about working with bundles.

• How to set up products

  Since you most likely will be using import to add products, you should also know how to add products manually:

  • Click on Products in your left sidebar.

  • In the upper right, click the + Add product button.

  • Enter the name, and number, and select the product type.

  • Click the Save button to add the product to the current category.

    

  Then you can add attributes, catalogs/categories, relations, completeness requirements, assets, and other elements in the tabs on the left panel product card.
