Change descriptive attributes within catalog entries

We can change a descriptive attribute for a catalog entry. This is useful when certain conditions change, for example, if a product is now machine washable instead of dry clean only.

  2. Find the catalog entry that contains the descriptive attribute we want to change.

  3. In the Search Results list view, right-click the catalog entry; then click Open to open the properties view for the catalog entry.

  4. Click the Descriptive Attributes tab.

  5. In the Descriptive Attributes table, select the attribute that we want to change.
