Create a Catalog

You create a catalog before you can configure categories or product data.

1. Select Merchant Tools > Site > Products and Catalogs > Catalogs
2. Click New.
3. On the General tab, provide the following information about the catalog.
   • Language–Select the default language in which to show the catalog.
   • Catalog ID–Enter a unique ID for the catalog. After you create the catalog, you can’t change this ID.
     Note: Do not create a catalog with the same ID as the site.
   • Name–Enter the catalog name.
   • Description–(optional) Enter an optional but specific explanation of the catalog, including its purpose.
4. Click Apply.
   Complete the catalog definition by assigning the catalog to a site, setting page image settings, creating categories, setting attributes, establishing definitions for search, setting sorting rules, and assigning page meta tag rules. You can find these options under the tabs in Business Manager.
