Product pages are amazing. Their versatility allows them to be used in many different ways. Not only do they display all the information describing your products, but they do much more! Product pages are based on document objects and are sometimes referred to as document pages or simply documents.

Accessing Product Pages

There are several ways to access your Quable PIM product pages, the most common are:

• Quick Search,
• Advanced Search, and
• The Documents page (via the Data menu).

Product Page Structure

Product pages contain everything necessary for presenting an item: editorial content, asset, variants, links to other documents, etc.

Although there is no "standard" product page structure, each includes the following segments:

Product Page Header

The upper part of the product page gathers the main information, accessible at a glance.

Asset Preview

At the top left of the product page header, you will find:

• A large thumbnail representing the first image associated with the product page, with the total number of asset displayed at the bottom right.
• Small thumbnails for other asset linked to the product page. By clicking on these small thumbnails, you can change the image displayed in the large thumbnail.
• A "more..." button. By clicking on it, you directly access the asset tab of the product page.

Name, Code, and Main Attributes

The central block of the header contains:

• The product page title, corresponding to the document's "name" attribute.
• The document code, with two nearby buttons to copy and edit this code.

• A dropdown menu to select and modify the attribute set of the product page.

• The main attributes configured by the administrator in the PIM instance's data model.

Breadcrumb

The breadcrumb at the top right of the product page shows the position of the product page within the classification hierarchy. The classification is interactive and allows navigation to higher levels.

Content Tabs

General

This tab is where you enter and edit most of the text descriptions for a product page. It generally contains several sections with distinct groups of attributes to be completed. The exact layout of the document type is configured by your Quable PIM administrator.

Quable AI Text Generation Tools

With Quable AI, users can easily generate relevant and accurate content with just a few clicks, enhancing their productivity. This feature enables users to fully leverage artificial intelligence for enriched and consistent product descriptions.

Identifying the Quable AI Text Generation Button

A button is available next to text input fields, allowing users to generate relevant prompts to automatically complete their text entries.

Generating Content

Click the AI prompt button to automatically generate content.

Monitoring Prompt Usage

If you are using an instance with a free subscription, Quable PIM displays the number of remaining prompts when using AI on the document page. Notifications inform you of the remaining prompts based on current usage.

Calculated Attributes

Overview

Calculated attributes automatically generate attribute values based on other attributes already filled in the product sheet. They appear like standard attributes, but their content is dynamically computed using a formula.

A calculated attribute:

• Appears greyed out on the product sheet,
• Is marked with a sigma symbol Σ on the product sheet,
• Is a non-localized and non-editable attribute,
• Displays a result in text format.

A calculated attribute is based on a formula defined in the administration menu. This formula combines one or more attributes using mathematical operators (+, -, *, /) and functions such as text concatenation, average calculation, and others.

Enrichment process

The values of calculated attributes populate automatically based on other attributes in the product sheet. In order for the calculated field to display a result, all attributes used in the formula must be filled.

If one or more attributes in the formula are empty, an exclamation mark (!) will appear next to the calculated attribute. Hovering over the icon will display a list of missing attributes. If there’s an error in the formula (e.g., division by zero), an explicit error message will be displayed instead of the result.

Calculated attributes are updated automatically:

• when a value of an attribute used in the formula is modified,
• during a bulk edit,
• or when the formula is modified by the administrator.

Save your changes

When you enrich attributes in the General tab, the changes are not saved automatically. A box at the bottom of the product page appears to inform you of the number of fields modified and invites you to save or cancel your changes.

At any time, you can save the changes made to a product page by clicking the Save button at the bottom of the page or Cancel to discard the changes.

Assets

This tab lets you manage the digital multimedia files (assets) associated with a product page.

Assets are displayed one after another in the sections that correspond to the link type used to associate them with the product page.

Just after the link name, the number of associated assets for that link is displayed. This helps quickly identify how many assets are used for specific purposes (e.g., collections, print, web, etc.).

Add assets

At the level of each section corresponding to the link used, click + Add an asset. There are three ways to add assets to a product sheet:

• Searching in the DAM. Enter at least three characters of the Name or Code of an existing asset in the search bar: a dropdown list of assets will automatically appear. Click the checkboxes to add or remove assets from the section.

  

• Upload a local file. Drag and drop files into the window, or click "Choose files". The new asset will automatically be associated with the document and imported into the DAM’s default classification.

• Import from an external link (see the Assets documentation).

Reorder assets

You can change the order of assets within a section by clicking the ⋮⋮ on the asset thumbnail, then dragging and dropping.

The main asset of the product page is the first asset in the first section. To select an asset from another section as the main asset, the administrator must change the position of the link type of the selected section.

Compressed download

You can download a compressed file containing all assets available in the asset tab of the product page by clicking the Download button. Assets are downloaded in their native format (no resizing).

Additional actions

When hovering over an asset, additional buttons appear, allowing you to perform actions on the selected asset:

More details

Clicking the More details button takes you directly to the asset page.

Download the asset

Clicking the Download the asset button opens a dialog box to specify the size to download:

• Original file – The file is downloaded in its original size. Note that depending on the format, it may be quite large.
• Image Resizer Profile – You can specify the Image Resizer Profile to apply. This option is used for image files.

Make your selections and click the Download button to download the asset, or Cancel to abort.

Unlink

Clicking the Unlink button removes the link between the document and the asset.

Delete

Clicking the Delete button permanently deletes the asset from the document and from Quable PIM.

Related Documents

This tab allows managing other documents related with the product page.

The links between documents are displayed in the left dropdown menu, and the number of related documents for each link is shown immediately after the link name. This allows quickly identifying the number of related documents used for specific purposes (e.g., cross-selling, upselling, etc.).

Display Options

You can modify the display of related documents in the table. Click on the three dots ⋮ next to the column header to access display options:

Variants

This tab allows managing variants associated with a product page.

Quick search: The quick search filters the existing variants in the table as soon as the first 3 characters entered. It searches both the variant codes and names, displaying the results directly in the table.

Add a Variant

• Click the Add variant button. A text field will appear, allowing you to associate an existing variant with the product page. If the variant is already linked to another product, it will be detached from the previous one and associated with the current product.

• Click the downward arrow to access a menu that allows you to:
  • Create a new variant
  • Import a file (for bulk import of new variants)

• Click Create new: A window will open to define the attribute values for the new variant.

Enter the information related to the variant attributes. By default, the following attributes are available:

Once you have entered all the information for the new variant, click on the Add button to save the variant or on the Cancel button to abandon creation.

Main Info

At a glance, this section displays the position (priority) of the variant and its code.

Enhance or Modify Variant Attributes

Variant attributes are displayed directly in the right part of the table. To enter or modify an attribute value, double-click on one of the cells. Use the Tab key to automatically move to the next attribute.

Double-click on the Active column cell of a variant to change its active or inactive state.

Display Options

You can modify the display of variant attributes in the table. Click on the three dots ⋮ next to the attribute name in the column header to display the display options:

Assets associated with variants

Click on a row in the table to select a variant. Assets association functionalities for the selected variant appear below the page.

You can then add asset for the selected variant by following the steps in the Assets section. The process is identical to managing asset for the product page.

Tasks

This tab allows you to manage tasks associated with the product page.

At the top of the tab, you will find Filters. Use the dropdown menus to filter tasks displayed by status, category, created by, and/or assigned to.

Tasks are displayed in the center of the tab with their status indicated by a color code representing the level of completion. Click on a task to open its dialogue box and add a comment for its creator.

To create a new task, click on the Create task button. This will open the New task window where you can enter the necessary information and assign the task to the appropriate person or role.

For more information on task management, refer to the Tasks page.

Action Buttons

The Actions menu (on the right side of the product page) provides access to a set of buttons for performing actions on the product page. These buttons are available from each tab of the page.

Move

You can move a document to another classification by clicking the Move button. A window will appear where you can select a new classification from a dropdown list. Once you have made your choice, click the Move button to move the document, or click the Close button to cancel the move.

Duplicate

You can create a copy of a product page by clicking the Duplicate button. A window will appear to confirm duplication. A "-copy" suffix is added to the Code of the document. You can modify it or leave it as-is.

Translate attributes

The Translate attributes button opens a full-page workspace dedicated to translation, letting you translate your product's attributes from one language to another. It's the preferred tool when you need to localize a Product Sheet productively, attribute by attribute.

Access the translation workspace

1. Open the product page you want to translate.
2. In the top right, open the Actions > More actions menu.
3. Click Translate attributes.

An overlay opens across the whole page: this is your translation workspace. It stays focused on the current product, without leaving the sheet.

Attribute translation lets you localize the content of a Product Sheet from a source language to a destination language, in a single workspace built for productivity. In practice, you view the original value and its translation side by side, and you fill in the target language manually or using automatic translation.

The translation workspace

The translation workspace is organized into three columns:

By default:

• The source language is the user's reference language, set in their User profile (Administration console).
• The destination language is the data language you are currently on.

Search for an attribute

A search bar is available in the overlay. It searches the attribute's name and code: handy for quickly finding a specific field in a content-heavy Product Sheet.

Navigate between tabs and sections

A navigation bar on the left of the overlay lists every tab and section of the product page. You can move from one part of the sheet to another without losing track of your translation.

Use automatic translation

Two levels of automatic translation are available. The engine used is Google Translate.

• "Auto translation" button (global): fills in only the empty fields in the destination column. Fields that already contain a value are not modified.

  

• Field-by-field translation: when you click a field in the destination column, an auto-translate button appears. It translates that single field only, even if it already contained a value (the value is then replaced).

  

Data inheritance and translation

Some values displayed in the translation workspace may be inherited (for example, from one language to another). It's important to understand how inheritance interacts with translation:

• In the translation workspace, inherited data is not locked as a "fixed" value: you can always modify it. This prevents it from being overwritten by the automatic translation button.
• After modification and saving, the data is written as a "fixed" value in the field.
• The inheritance mechanism applies only when there is no "fixed" value in the field (attribute). As soon as a raw value is saved in the attribute, it no longer inherits.

Print

You can generate a product sheet in PDF format by clicking the Print button. A new browser window will open to display the generated PDF.

The PDF product sheet contains the following information:

Archive

You can exclude a document from displaying in your Quable PIM by clicking the Archive button. A window will appear to confirm archiving. Click Yes to archive the document, or click No to cancel archiving.

Delete

You can permanently delete a product page by clicking the Delete button. A window will appear to confirm deletion.

Collaboration Widgets

On the right side of the product page, you will find collaboration widgets. By default, all widgets are visible, but you can collapse them for better readability by clicking the arrow at the beginning of the section. These widgets can also be rearranged using drag-and-drop by clicking the ⋮⋮ icon at the beginning of the row.

Activity History

In the Last Edited section, you can view the most recent actions performed on the product page. The feed displays the name of the person who performed the action and the date it was carried out.

Click More to get additional details about the action, including the data language used for the modification if applicable. You will then be able to view the full history on a dedicated page displaying all modifications:

Each individual modification is listed in a table displaying:

• Start Date - the date the modification was made
• Author - the person who made the modification (profile picture is also displayed)
• Actions - the type of modification performed
• Languages - the data language used for the modification

Click the i icon at the end of the row to open a dialog box with additional details about the modification:

The details are color-coded to indicate the type of change:

• GREEN = new values, information has been added.
• RED = old values, information has been modified or deleted.

Changes to the last modified date without an activity

In Quable PIM, some actions can update a record's last modified date without generating an entry in its activity feed.

As a result, a record may appear to have been recently modified even though no corresponding action is visible in its activity history. This is expected in the following cases:

• Creating or modifying an automatic tag assignment rule
• Creating, modifying, or deleting a completeness configuration
• Reordering the variants of a product record

If a record has a recent last modified date but no corresponding action appears in its activity history, one of these actions may be the reason.
