Product catalog features
Product catalog features
| Easily add unlimited products & product categories to your store catalog.
Create a category tree with unlimited categories and category levels
Categories can contain both products (i.e. featured products within the category) and subcategories
Easily assign a product to multiple categories and edit existing assignments.
Clone existing products to quickly add similar items (all product settings including product options are cloned).
Import a CSV or MS Excel file to quickly populate the product
database. A Wizard-style import utility guides you step by step through
the field mapping process. Update a large number of products at once by
appending or updating data to the database using the import feature.
Import updated product information by appending data to the
existing store database. The Import Wizard allows you not only to
import new product database, but also update existing records (e.g.
import new pricing information for 400 products already in the
database). The Wizard even remembers the last mapping settings, so you
don't have to remap all the fields.
Build a category tree and assign products to multiple categories while importing product information.
Import your categories and all category settings using the Category Import Wizard.
Easily undo the last product import/update.
Import/export product information programmatically (e.g. inventory data) using the ProductCart XML Tools
Add unlimited images to your products: three main images per
product (thumbnail, standard, detailed), plus unlimited additional
images. The main image is automatically replaced by another image when
the customer mouses over the second image thumbnail.
Automatically link the standard image to the detailed image, which
pops up in a new browser window on the product details page,
automatically resized to the image's height and width.
Upload product images to your Web server right from ProductCart.
Automatically resize uploaded images to quickly create the three product images mentioned above from one source image file
Specify retail and wholesale price. Easily set the wholesale price
for all or groups of products as a percentage of the retail price using
the new Global Changes feature or through the Import Wizard.
Create additional, customer-specific pricing levels, with prices
that can be set across the board (e.g. "Preferred Customers"
automatically receive 10% off) or on a product by product basis.
Automatically show savings compared to list price (list price is shown stricken through).
Enhance your product description with HTML tags using the built-in
HTML editor.
Make a product tax-exempt.
Assign free shipping to a product. Select whether or not to show a free shipping message.
Set products as 'not for sale' and enter a custom message to display (e.g. 'coming soon', or 'discontinued').
Inactivate products without having to delete them.
Make a product ignore any inventory settings (e.g. the product is actually a service).
Prevent customers from ordering more than the current inventory
level for a product (e.g. if there are 3 units in stock, customers
cannot order 4).
Enter the product weight in pounds and ounces (or Kg and grams).
For very light products (e.g. business cards) enter how many units
weigh 1 pound (or 1 Kg) so that ProductCart may correctly calculate
shipping charges (e.g. if 1,000 business cards weigh 1 pound,
ProductCart will know that an order for 3,000 business cards weighs 3
pounds).
Enforce a minimum quantity amount (e.g. you can't order 1 business card, but rather at least 250).
Validate product quantity based on a multiplier (e.g. you can't order 274 business cards, but rather only a multiple of 500).
Specific that a product is 'oversized', then enter the
product-specific package dimensions. When calculating shipping charges
for this product, the shopping cart will know to ship it as a separate
box, and will overwrite the default package dimensions with its special
ones.
Create and easily manage a multi-tier category structure.
Add up to 2 images per category (thumbnail, large).
Add category descriptions with HTML tags using the built-in HTML editor.
Show a different category description depending on whether the
category is displaying subcategories or products within the category.
Set the order in which categories are displayed in the store.
Set the exact order in which products should be displayed within a
category, overwriting the default order setting (default ordering
criteria can be: part number, product name, low price, high price).
Easily add product options (e.g. size, color, etc.) to one product or multiple products at once.
Set the order in which attributes should be shown (e.g. 'small' should show before 'medium', not after).
Assign positive and negative prices (e.g. add $30 or subtract $18) to product options.
Create separate option pricing for retail and wholesale buyers.
Make an option required (e.g. customer must choose a "size").
Keep and manage product inventory. ProductCart automatically
updates inventory levels when an order is placed, and reinstates
previous inventory levels when the same order is cancelled or returned.
Manage inventory on product variations with the Apparel Add-on: "blue/small" is a different part number from "red/large" (different stock level, part number, product image, etc.).
Cross-sell products on the product details page
and/or shopping cart page. Easily "copy" an existing cross selling
relationship to other products.
Easily setup cross-selling relationships among products.
Create product bundles: special cross-selling
relationships where when two products are ordered at the same time, a
discount is applied. Specify whether the discount is a percentage or
absolute amount.
Turn cross-selling on/off store wide with one click.
Add custom input fields to allow customers to enter information as
they order an item (e.g. initials to be embroidered on a polo shirt, or
message for a greeting card). Enter up to 3 custom input fields per
product. Make a custom input field required or not.
Create custom search fields and associate them with any products
(e.g. assign "Wine Type: Merlot" to 10 wines in the store). Search
filters and their corresponding values are automatically loaded on the
advanced search page in the storefront (e.g. customer selects "Wine
Type" and ProductCart automatically loads a second menu with "Merlot",
"Cabernet", "Chianti", etc.). Enter up to 3 custom search fields per
product.
Quickly update a variety of product attributes on multiple products at once using the powerful Global Changes feature.
Quickly update prices for multiple products at once, on one screen.
Easily locate a product for editing, using multiple filters.
Associate a product with a brand and let your customers browse the
store by brand. Choose whether to show brand information and brand
logos on the store.
Securely sell downloadable products
(e.g. software, images, ebooks, and any other digital content). Hide
the download URL, make the URL expire, deliver license information with
the download link (e.g. a serial number required for installation).
Easily integrate a custom license generator with the system. More about
selling digital goods with ProductCart.
Sell apparel products
and other goods that require inventory tracking at the product
variations level (i.e. product options are actually separate part
numbers) with the new Apparel Add-On.
Sell fully configurable products and services with the Build To Order version of ProductCart. It contains a sophisticated product configurator
that allows you to sell anything from custom computers, to catering
services. Visit the Build To Order section of our Web site for
extensive information and demonstrations.
Export to Froogle™. You can instantly create a Froogle data feed.
Complete product review system that allows store customers to rate
products and post feedback. Many advanced administrator settings allow
store managers to personalize the way the feature works, including the
ability to be notified, review and approve each review before it is
posted on the Web store.
Content management system that allows the store manager to use
ProductCart to handle "Content Pages" (About US, Customer Service,
etc.), so that all of those pages can be managed right from within the
Control Panel, rather than designed with a separate HTML editor.
