We’re introducing new product categories to help Buyers find you and your products on Fieldfolio. Product categories will allow us to improve the way Buyers navigate our marketplace, including our catalog, search and product pages. Don’t worry, you’ll still be able to use your existing custom tags (previously known as “categories”) to organise your catalogs for your Buyers and Sales Reps in whatever way works for you. What are product categories about?Buyers have told us that they need a better way to find the products that are right for them on Fieldfolio’s marketplace. Many Sellers have also told us that they would prefer a standard set of product categories to organise their products, rather than having to make their own custom tags. So we’ve come up with approximately 1000 product categories that best reflect our Buyers and Sellers needs. What will be different?Product categories are an additional tool for organising products on Fieldfolio, and no existing functionality is being removed. Importantly, your existing custom tags will be preserved. To enter a product category for a product, you can either edit each product individually or use the updated CSV export/import process and take advantage of the new Product Category Code (column P). See the updated Example Product Data CSV for examples. What do Sellers need to do?From 30 September 2022, adding or updating product (including via CSV) will require you to include a product category code. You can easily find product categories for your products, as well as a complete list of product categories, using our product category code finder page. With approximately 1000 product categories included, there will usually be a category that matches each of your products - if not, please simply choose the best fit. What happens if Sellers don’t update their products?Products that don’t have a product category code from 30 September 2022 will remain fully active in both the Fieldfolio for iPad app and online, but won’t be able to take advantage of the product discoverability improvements we’re making to the Fieldfolio platform. |
