Managing Your Products
Welcome to your product management hub! This page is where you’ll spend most of your time organizing, editing, and enriching your product catalog. Whether you’re managing dozens or thousands of products, this guide will help you work efficiently and get the most out of WISEPIM’s powerful features.
The Products page automatically saves your preferences like column visibility, filters, and sorting options, so your workspace stays exactly how you like it.
What You Can Do Here
- View and organize your entire product catalog in a customizable table
- Search and filter products to find exactly what you need
- Edit products individually or in bulk to save time
- Enrich product descriptions using AI to improve quality
- Import and export products from various platforms
- Collaborate with real-time updates when team members make changes
Understanding the Products Page Layout
When you first arrive at the Products page, you’ll see:
- Search bar at the top left for quick product searches
- Filter and column buttons to customize your view
- Bulk action buttons on the top right (Import, Export, Bulk Edit, Enrich)
- Product table showing your products with sortable columns
- Pagination controls at the bottom to navigate through pages
Finding Products Quickly
Basic Search
The fastest way to find products is using the search bar:
- Click in the search bar at the top left
- Type any product information you remember:
- Product names
- SKU codes
- EAN numbers
- Description text
- Press Enter to search, or clear the field to see all products again
The search looks across multiple fields at once, so you don’t need to remember exactly which field contains your search term.
Advanced Filtering
For more precise searches, use the Filters button:
- Click the Filters button next to the search bar
- In the filter panel that opens:
- Add filters by clicking + Add Filter
- Choose a field to filter by (price, status, category, etc.)
- Select an operator (equals, contains, greater than, etc.)
- Enter your criteria
- Enable/disable filters using the toggle switches
- Choose AND or OR logic for multiple filters
- Click Apply Filters to see results
Your filter settings are saved in the URL, so you can bookmark specific filtered views or share them with team members.
Customizing Your View
Choosing Which Columns to Show
Tailor the table to show only the information you need:
- Click the Columns button in the toolbar
- In the column selection panel:
- Check/uncheck columns to show or hide them
- Drag columns up and down to reorder them
- Use the search box to quickly find specific columns
- Click Apply Changes to update your view
The Actions column is always visible and stays at the end - this ensures you can always access product options.
