Working with Items List
The Items form displays items that you have set up in the product catalog. When working with the items list, you can perform the following actions:
When you access PIM and go to Product Catalog > Items, the items list is empty. To display items in the product catalog, use the Find and Replace tool:
- Check the top left corner of the Find and Replace section and make sure that the Find option is selected.
- In the By field list, select the field by which you want to search for items.
- In the Condition list, select the search operator.
- In the Items to search field, enter the search value.
- At the bottom of the search filter, click the Find button.
For example, to display all items that exist in the product catalog, you can set the following search filter:
- By field: Description
- Condition: Any
Result: PIM displays all items that match the specified search criteria.
