Linking a category

To link an existing category in one sales catalog to a new subcategory in another sales catalog:

  1. Open the WebSphere Commerce Accelerator.

  2. Select Merchandise > Sales Catalogs.

    Select Products > Sales Catalogs.
    The Sales Catalogs page displays. If you do not see this menu, then your logon ID does not have the appropriate authority to perform this task. Contact your Site Administrator.

  3. From the list of available sales catalogs, select a catalog in which you want to link a category and click Design.

  4. From the Target Catalog page, the category tree for the selected sales catalog displays.

  5. From the Source Catalog page, click

    for a list of available catalogs. Select a sales catalog and click Display Category Tree.

  6. In the target category tree, highlight the parent target category. This is the category under which the subcategory will be linked.

  7. In the source category tree, highlight the category to be linked and click Link to Target Category.

  8. A confirmation message will be displayed once the category has been linked to the sales catalog. In the category tree, the link icon (

    ) is displayed next to the category. Click OK.
