Add products to one or more categories in a single pass. By default this adds to their current categories instead of replacing them, so nothing you already set up gets lost. Use this to organize new products or build out a category as your catalog grows.

Tips

  • Keep Auto-select parent categories on so products stay properly nested in the tree. Most e-commerce platforms need this.
  • WisePIM flags parent-child conflicts, so you know when a selection creates unexpected nesting.
  • Filter your product list first. For example, filter by brand, then assign all matching products to a brand category in one go.
