Building a Condition to Search SKUs

Prev Next

There are 2 options available to build a condition:

  • Select a category – This includes using any or all of the categories available. Details about the various categories and the options available are explained here.

  • Select a saved condition – This includes using the saved conditions. Details on how to save a condition and the various actions that can be performed on them is explained in section Saved Conditions.

You can build conditions using the categories only or you can use saved conditions along with the categories to build complex conditions to search the required SKU data.

Let us understand how to build conditions using both the scenarios.

Case 1: Using categories to build a condition

For example, we have  a catalog consisting of accessories such as sunglasses, watches and so on. Let us search for SKUs which have an attribute Frame Material with value as Plastic and have digital assets linked to it as these SKUs need to be edited.

To build a condition to search SKUs:

  1. In the Advance SKU Search page, click the Build a Condition tab and select the catalog in which the SKU exists as shown below.

NOTE

The operator AND is selected by default within the same category. Also, the same options can also be added multiple times depending on the condition being built. For example, if we wanted to search for SKUs which have an attribute Frame Material with value as Plastic and Rubber, the same option could be added again with value as Rubber.

Now, we need to select the digital asset category. Here, we have the option of choosing the operator as AND  / OR depending on the condition being built. Since, we need assets which are linked to SKUs as well, we will keep it as AND. If OR is needed, move the toggle to OR.

  1. You can directly search for the SKUs or save the condition and then search the SKUs.

The following 4 options are available:

  • Save Only – This will save the entire condition. You need to enter the relevant details to save it as explained in section Saved Conditions.

  • Save & Search – This will save the condition after you enter the relevant details as well as display the result based on the condition built.

  • Search Only – This will display the result based on the condition applied and filter the SKU data.

  • Reset - This will reset the entire page by removing all the added conditions.

NOTE

You can also save one section of a condition and give a name and description for that specific condition. However, this is optional. For example, in this case, you can save the attribute part of the condition to be reused in any other condition or to execute it when needed.

Case 2: Using categories and saved conditions to build a condition

For example, we have  a catalog consisting of accessories such as sunglasses, watches and so on. Let us search for SKUs having SKU Id which does not start with 100 series and has an attribute Brand with value as Rayban.

To build a condition to search SKUs:

  1. Follow steps 1 & 2 as explained in Case 1 above.

  2. Click SKU and select the category as SKU Item Id, operator as Does Not Start With and type the value as 100 as shown below.

A condition with attribute Brand having value as Rayban is already created and saved. In this case, we can directly use this saved condition. Details on how to save a condition is explained here.
