Product Manager Introduction

Because of the flexibility of CommerceCM it has been a challenge to create a comprehensive Product Manager overview.  We have built the most flexible eCommerce platform on the market so no two merchants manage their products identically.

Merchants can have product catalogs with:

  • Multiple Product Types:  Each can have its own data model.
  • Multiple Templates:  A home gym is not sold the same way as a skipping rope.
  • Multiple Descriptions: Either as tabs or displayed as different sections of content as the user scrolls down your product page.
  • Relations: A unique feature of CommerceCM allowing merchants to extend standard product descriptions with custom elements including video, PDF downloadable manuals for support, and other unique functionality.
  • Specifications: Useful if your site uses Product Comparison functionality or has filtering for shoppers.

This is intended as a high level overview of the basic concepts to introduce you to the features of the system and the vocabulary we use.

For specifics on how to manage your products on your own site, refer to site specific documentation provided by your project manager, designer, or support contact as part of your site implementation.

If you are unable to find your documentation or were not provided with any, please contact support at the number in the footer, through live chat in the CommerceCM manager or by emailing support@idealever.com
