Products

This section provides an overview of your product inventory, detailing the quantities of simple, grouped, and variant products.

Completeness

Completeness shows % of products fulfilled at 100% (number of products fulfilled at 100% divided by the total number of all products in the system, divided by language).

Statuses

Statuses will inform you about the number of products in all available workflow statuses, categorized by language as well.

This is a place where you can see what action in the system was made by your account. It's similar to Activity logs in the System, but there you view the activity of all accounts (also made by system or intergations you have implemented ) in one place.

Metadata is a feature that allows for attribute description with Key > Value list, so it can be used in different cases, and it's really up to the user how he will do it.

The analogy to this would be a product that is described by a list of attributes: attribute code > attribute value.

A usage example would be the possibility to reflect Magento 2 one-to-many attributes to groups relation.

magento_groups -> group1,group2

or

magento_group1 -> group1

magento_group2 -> group2

But it is NOT specifically connected to any Magento functions like attribute groups.

Basically, those are data that allow for some description of the attributes.

Technically it's simply the next attribute data type

Custom fields are a way to add extra information to your attributes of type select or multiselect. You can create up to 10 custom fields per attribute, and choose from four different types of custom fields:

• Image

• Text

• Textarea

• Textarea RTE.

To create a custom field, follow these steps:

• Edit or an attribute of type select or multiselect.

• Go to the “Custom fields” tab.

• Type a name for your custom field in the “Custom field code” input field. This name should be unique and descriptive.

• Choose a custom field type from the drop-down list. The type determines the format and input options for your custom field.

• Click on the “+ Add” button to create the custom field.

After you create a custom field, you can see it in the “Options” tab, where you can edit its value or values simply by double-clicking on it.

The input field will depend on the type of the custom field. For example, if the custom field type is Image, you can add an image file. If the custom field type is Textarea RTE, you can use the rich text editor to format your text.

• Click on the “Save changes” button to save the changes.

Relations are everything that connect one product to another. They may be a product relation attribute, or they may be used as children in grouping products, or they may be variants of other main products.

Product relation attribute

First, determine if there are any product relation attributes in the system.

Go to Product Design > Attributes and double-click on the cell just under the Type field. This will open a list of all available attribute types.

Find the Product Relation attribute and select it. Then press OK.

This action will filter out all Product Relation type attributes that are created in the system.

Then, look for these attributes in the product (Product > Catalog) of the product you want to delete. Clear their values and save the changes.

You may also add those attributes to the product catalog grid as described and work from there.

To check for this, drag the product relation attribute to the product catalog grid and search for the SKU of the product you want to delete. The filter will return only those products that have relations to the one you’re interested in.

Grouping product

The relation can be built by connecting products as children of a main grouping product.

To easily find out if a product you wish to delete is connected this way, follow the same method as described earlier. Add the system attribute Product Children to the product catalog grid, and look for the SKU of the item you want to delete.

Variable products

The same approach applies to variable products. Add the system attribute Product Variants and search for relevant connections.

Key Features:

• Customization: Personalize your attributes with up to ten additional fields, choosing between single-select or multi-select options.

• Advanced Options:Enrich your attributes with icons and descriptions to go beyond basic categorization.

• Flexibility: Enhance your workflows with attributes that are detailed, comprehensive, and fully tailored to your needs.

Benefits:

• Personalization: Craft attributes that resonate with your unique business needs and vision.

Introduction

A grouping product gathers simple products into a set with one or more common features. For example, if you run a store with leather accessories, you may want to create a set of products such as a wallet, suitcase, and belt, making it visible under one listing in your store search and managing it with a specific set of attributes and categories.

To create a grouping product, follow the same initial steps as before, but when selecting a product type, choose Grouping Product.

As before, fill in all fields; the differences will appear after you have created the product and moved to edit it.

In the fast-paced world of e-commerce, the ability to precisely and attractively present product information can be a game-changer. Ergonode's Custom Fields feature offers e-commerce businesses the tools to enhance their product listings, leading to improved customer experience and potentially higher sales.

Some of the possible use cases include:

Download the custom_fields_et_import_example.zip and take a look at the files included inside it.

ZIP file includes , , , and files, which are necessary to import and create everything that is needed to use custom fields.

There is limited flexibility in this area. The system name cannot be changed directly. If you need to update it, you must delete the existing group and create a new one.

To remove an attribute from a group go to , then edit the one you need and you will be taken to the tab.

With product templates, you can easily create and manage different layouts for different types of products, and ensure that they have all the necessary information and attributes.

Product templates are not meant to be exported to your eCommerce platform. They are only for your internal use in Ergonode PIM, to help you organize and enrich your product data in a user-friendly way.

Here you may set or change a template displayed name, it can be different per every language. By default, only the main language is displayed but you may change it from the drop-down Translations menu.

Collections works more like virtual categories. It doesn’t just have to be for obvious things like “Winter Collection” but can be used for things like “Sale” or “Promotion”. In general, collections are worth having for grouping products connected in some way beyond simple categories.

Collections are also used with the function.

When you create your collection they will appear on the grid.

Segments are a feature of the system that allows you to easily create a list of products that meet specific conditions. Some examples:

• Attribute has value,

• Product completeness,

• The product belongs to a category,

Color coding of element types. To improve clarity in more complex section designs, the Designer shows distinct background colors by item type while arranging content.

• Widgets: Light orange. • Attributes: Grey.

This feature is available only in the Designer for Templates and Sections and is designed to make element types easier to recognize at a glance.

To create a new segment click on + NEW SEGMENT in the upper right corner.

Now type a code for this segment. Choose a name that will allow you to identify its content.

Click on CREATE to save a segment or CREATE & EDIT to open it in edit mode. In edit mode, you will have access to three tabs:

Here you can only check the segment code.

Description

Here you can add and translate options for an attribute. To change what languages are displayed on the grid go to the Languages list in the left top corner of the screen and select desired ones.

To add a new option type its name and click on + Add or simply press ENTER on your keyboard.

When options are added, they can be translated. Here you may use the TAB button on your keyboard to jump to the next field.

As you probably noticed, edited fields are green now, this means that they were successfully edited, but remember to click the SAVE CHANGES button to save them when you are done.

To change the option position double click on the number in the Position column and type a new one.

Press on the green icon on hit ENTER on your keyboard to confirm the change.

To delete an option click on the bin icon.

If you wish to change the size of the grid, press the cog icon on the right side of the screen.

It's possible to change sorting on the grid, to do so click on the sorting icon on the column you wish to use.

If you have a lot of options you may be in need of a search, to do so double click on the first row of the grid in the column you wish to use, type what you are looking for and press ENTER on your keyboard.

Copy options

You can easily copy attribute options between languages. To do so, select the options you wish to copy.

Next, select Copy options from the Actions menu.

Now decide what you wish to copy and where.

Confirm your choices.

Translate the option via AI

Select options you wish to translate with AI.

Choose Translate option names.

Select a language from and to, and click on the Translate options names button.

Confirm your choices.

This is probably the most important tab in Segments, as here you are able to set up different conditions for a product to meet, so they will be added to a segment by the system.

Available conditions are displayed on the left panel, to add them you simply drag and drop them.

In conditions where the user has a multi-select type to choose from, it's possible to select more than one.

Please be aware that configuration means: "if the product belongs to Monitors or Phillips category". If you wish for a condition to say: "if the product belongs to more than one (specific) category" the proper configuration is to use the same condition twice.

You can add one or more conditions but remember that both of them will need to be met for a product to appear in that segment (AND operator)

Depending on the condition there may be extra options to choose from.

When you are done, click on SAVE CHANGES.

Introduction

If your product has multiple versions, such as colors, materials, or sizes, you will need a product with variants. To create one, follow the same initial steps as when creating a simple product, but when you see the Create Product popup window, choose

Introduction

Validators help protect data integrity by ensuring that only data meeting specific conditions is accepted into the system. For example, when dealing with text type attributes, you can use regular expressions (regex). Imagine regex as a pattern that checks whether the attribute value is correct; for example, it checks if an email address contains an "@" symbol. This helps maintain accuracy and prevents errors.

The idea of attribute management is at the core of efficient product catalog enrichment and distribution. On the following pages, we will show you our thinking behind the role of attributes in our Ergonode PIM system.

What is an attribute?

Choose a status and language to set for a previously selected products and click on the Change status button.

Confirm your decision or cancel it.

After confirmation, a notification will show up.

Here you can create and manage categories.

To edit a category click on the (pen) icon.

To delete a category click on the bin icon.

To delete more than one category at once tick the checkbox next to the categories you wish to delete and from the Action menu choose Delete categories.

Confirm or cancel your choice.

This function runs in the background, you will be notified about it in the

To manually create an attribute click on + NEW ATTRIBUTE.

The first thing you need to do is to decide on the type of attribute you want to create.

When the type is chosen, you will see other configuration options, most options are the same across all types but some have extra ones.

Options that are shared among all attribute types

Attribute type-specific options

Here you may perform three actions:

Add to categories

This action assigns products to selected categories and keeps the existing ones.

1. This is just an icon to visually indicate what type of action it would perform.

2. This will filter categories from the [5] list to a specific category tree.

3. This will filter the [5] list to display only those categories that are checked.

4. This will select all categories displayed in the [5] list.

Click on Add to categories to proceed or Cancel to abort. If you go with it, a final confirmation window will appear.

Change categories

This will work exactly like a but will change product categories and remove existing ones.

Remove from categories

This will work exactly like a but will remove products from the selected categories

This batch action works the same way the Generate product descriptions do. The only difference is that here text type attribute is used instead of textarea.

Please refer to this .

Product card

This is a place where you can set values for your products, create an AI-generated product description based on selected attributes, use the AI translation feature, and establish two-way product relations.

At the top left corner, there is an [1] Edit language drop-down menu; use it to switch between languages for filling in attribute values.

At the left top corner, you can find [2] Edit template button, [3] the Completion index, and [4] the Missing translation indicator, and [5] the workflow status switch.

[2] Edit template button - takes you directly to the template editor feature.

[3] The Completion index - shows how many of the in that are marked as and are filled with values.

[4] Missing translation - indicates that there are untranslated attribute values in the product.

[5] The workflow status switch - allows you to change the status of a product if are met.

Product Navigation panel

The navigation sidebar helps navigate long product templates by providing an at‑a‑glance list of sections and headings widgets to quick jumps to each area on the product page.

• names reflect the template structure defined in Product design → Product templates → Sections, so the sidebar mirrors the same internal organization used during template design.

• indicators in the sidebar reflect required attributes and assigned completeness sets, allowing a quick read on enrichment progress per section.

• Jump to any section: click a section name in the sidebar to scroll instantly to that block on the product page.

AI Description

The “Generate content” option for the text and textarea attributes enables users to create AI-powered product descriptions quickly. Users can either enter a custom prompt using variables that reference product attributes.

Or select specific attributes to guide the content generation. This feature streamlines the process of writing product descriptions by automatically generating relevant and well-structured text tailored to the product’s details, saving time and ensuring consistency across listings.

To use it, click on the three dots (kebab) menu in the textarea type attribute and choose Auto-generated content.

This will allow you to select attributes on which to base your description. The more attributes you select, the better the description will be. Click on Generate Content to proceed or "x" to abort.

Wait for a moment, and when done, the content will be automatically pasted into the attribute value.

AI Translation

This feature allows for automatic content translation and can be used for any text or textarea-type attribute.

To start translating, click on the three dots (kebab) menu for your chosen attribute, select Translate from, and then choose the source language for this translation.

Now wait a moment, and the translated value will be automatically inserted into the attribute.

Remember to save your changes when you are done.

AI Complete

AI Complete empowers all users to auto-populate empty product attributes in two flexible ways: by selecting existing attributes or by uploading a PDF specification. This streamlined workflow saves time and ensures consistent, high-quality content across your catalog.

Accessing AI Complete

• Switch to the Template tab.

• Click the AI Complete button in the top-right corner.

Mode 1: Complete with Attributes

Use case: Quickly generate values using your existing product data.

Steps:

• From the AI Complete menu, choose Complete with attributes.

1/2 Select attributes to complete

• In the right-hand panel, check each empty attribute you want AI to fill (e.g., Product title, Meta description, Detailed description, Short description, SEO tags, Product relations).

• Click Next step.

2/2 Choose data to identify the product

• Pick one or more identifying attributes (for example, Main image, Product type, Brand, Short description).

• Click Complete product.

Best Practices

• Attribute selection: The more contextual attributes you include, the more accurate the output.

• Identifying: Choose at least one clear identifier (e.g., image, title) to guide the AI.

• PDF quality: For PDF mode, ensure your document has clear headings, tables, and specifications.

• Retry generation: If results aren’t satisfactory, adjust your attribute choices or upload a refined PDF and try again.

Attribute variables in the product template

To use the variables, click on a supported attribute in the product template and type the hash character (#). A list of available variables will be displayed.

You can use more than one variable.

When a variable is used, a new eye icon will appear. If clicked, a preview will be shown.

Gallery attribute

There are four items in the gallery-type attribute:

[1] Information on how many images are in the gallery.

[2] Name of the file.

[3] Context menu.

[4] Arrows to display previous/next images.

Product relation attribute

You can choose to create a two-way relationship with a product instead of a traditional one-way relationship. To do so, click on the + Add Relations button.

Then, toggle the Create a Two-Way Relation switch to add the currently edited product as a relation to a selected product.

Textarea with RTE-enabled attribute

RTE-enabled textarea-type attributes allow you to enter rich text content with various formatting options. You can use the RTE editor to create and edit your content in the Product Catalog. You may also use variables.

To use the RTE editor, follow these steps:
