Overview
The Catalogs functionality allows to add, modify and delete catalogs from the Work Area. The status of catalogs is important in different areas, hence can be freely defined. It also makes it possible to track the process of the catalog.
The Product Catalog Editor is used to add new catalogs, search for the existing ones, modify and delete them.
