Question: What is my ‘product type’?


Defined as: The lowest level product classification of the item. This is a more rigid way to categorize where a supplier must choose from our list which the category of their item is. This allows us to require attributes based on the type of product you sell.

Example: These can be found in our attribute guide or our Universal Spreadsheet template on the ‘Product Type’ tab. Home categories as it relates to the example of tables and chairs are below. You would paste the entire Product type into the attribute.

Selection Code: 100

Selection Code Description: Furniture

Product Code: Dining

Product Code Description: Dining Tables

Product Type: Home - Tables & Desks
