1. Categories step

When you are in the Categories stepyou will see two tabs: Categorization and Uncategorized Items. When you go to the Categorization tab, you will immediately see the button Generate Categories. If you already added categories manually, then you will find this option when you click on Select Action.

2. Generating Categories

Click on Generate Categories to open a pop-up window.


You can select the field from which to generate your categories. Ideally, you should use the most specific categorization available from your Main Store (.e.g: "Product Type" field). After selecting the appropriate field, click Save.

3. Assigning categories

After generating your categories, you will find a set of If "Field" "Condition" "Value" rules. What you can do here is filter on the value of a field, for example: If "Product Type" "is equal to" "Makeup Removers" then set to category "Health & Beauty > Personal Care > Cosmetics > Skin Care > Makeup Removers". This will assign this category to all items that match this filter.

Also, the Set to Category dropdown will also provide suggestions that best match the value, making the categorization process easier.

4. Review your categorization

Don't forget to click Save, or your settings will be lost. Once you have saved the changes, the Uncategorized Items tab will display the number of uncategorized items. To see which items have not yet been categorized, click on Uncategorized Items and a list will appear.


It’s best to strive for all items to be categorized.
