A B2B Commerce store must have only one catalog that represents the entire collection of products offered through your store. To make it easier for shoppers and buyers to find products, you can group them into categories.
Which Salesforce Commerce Product Do I Have?
- Create a Catalog and Assign It to a Store
Before you can make products available to buyers and shoppers, your B2B Commerce store must have a catalog. A catalog is the entire collection of products that you offer through your store. When you create a store, a default catalog is assigned to the store. You can use the default catalog or assign a different catalog to the store. You can assign a catalog to more than one store, but a store can have only one catalog at a time. - Verify That a Catalog Is Assigned to the Store
Your B2B store must have an associated catalog. - Use External Product Media URLs in B2B Commerce
Add external URLs for product media instead of uploading them to Salesforce CMS. This feature is useful for large catalogs, where adding media for every product to Salesforce CMS individually can take days. This setting applies to all stores in your org, affects only product media (not category media, which continues to use Salesforce CMS), and takes effect immediately. After you enable the feature, add media URLs directly on the product. - Product Readiness
Improve your customers’ shopping experience with a comprehensive, consistent level of detail for all products on your B2B storefront. Use Product Readiness to find any products that are missing important elements that can make the product difficult for a customer to understand and purchase. Ensure that all the products in a catalog are storefront ready before you set the catalog to live. - Manage Product Readiness for B2B Stores
Product Readiness is available in the Product Workspace. Anytime a custom rule set is enabled or disabled, build an initial score for your catalogs. - Prepare Your B2B Store Catalog with Product Readiness
Before activating your catalog, run Product Readiness. After checking all products in the catalog against the default rule set, Product Readiness displays which products still need some attention.
