Unlike user limits, inactive automations are counted against the license.
Automations will be gradually deployed over April and May 2025 to all customers with a license that includes this feature.
By automating repetitive processes, you can save time, reduce errors, and enhance productivity. This guide will walk you through the basics of setting up and using automations.
Automations are sequences of actions triggered by specific conditions to perform tasks automatically. They can be used for a variety of purposes, such as:
Automatically classifying products into categories.
Generating product descriptions or names.
Introducing changes across large datasets.
Translating product attributes into multiple languages.
Automations in Ergonode offer several advantages:
Time Savings: Reduce manual tasks and focus on strategic activities.
Consistency: Ensure uniformity across product data and descriptions.
Scalability: Manage large catalogs efficiently without increasing workload.
Error Reduction: Minimize human errors in repetitive tasks like categorization or attribute updates.
To build powerful automations:
Define clear objectives for what you want to automate.
Start with simple automations before creating complex workflows.
Test thoroughly on a small set of products before applying them to your entire catalog.
Monitor performance and refine as needed.
Document your automations for team knowledge sharing.
Automatically classify products into categories based on keywords in their names or descriptions:
If a product name contains keywords like "Sneakers" or "Boots," assign it to the category "Shoes."
If a description includes specific phrases, assign additional categories like "New Collection."
Prevent errors by ensuring price attributes meet specific criteria:
Set conditions for "promotion_price" and "catalog_price."
If prices fall outside acceptable ranges, change the product status to "Review Required."
For textile products:
If an attribute like “Care Code” equals a specific value (e.g., "w30-bin-drn-ir1-dcn"), update related attributes:
Washing = “Gentle, 30°C”
Dry Clean = “No”
Ironing = “Max. 110°C”
Ergonode’s automations integrate AI capabilities to further enhance functionality.
