This pane reflects all the accessories you
have in your database. This is where you can select and drag your
accessories into your planograms.
Finding items in the catalog of accessories
works the same as for products. Consult the following sections for
instructions:
Thumbnail list (Catalog of
accessories)
The right side of the catalog pane displays
the list of accessories corresponding to your current Classification hierarchy
(Catalog of products) or to your Search by text (Catalog of
products).
Each product is represented by a thumbnail and
a text description.
By default, the thumbnail caption is the
accessory name, but you can also set it to another property, such
as Reference or a combination of properties (consult Captions
& Search).
Adding accessories to a
planogram
To place an accessory from the catalog into
your current planogram:
- Find the desired accessory in the catalog
using the classification or the text filters.
- Hold the mouse button down and
drag the accessory to the desired location on the bay:
- Accessories with the following behaviors must
be dragged onto Back panel: bay header, panel. Consult each
behavior description for details on where exactly the accessory can
be placed on the back panel.
- Release the mouse button once you have
reached the desired location. The accessory is placed on the
bay.
- Once an accessory has been placed in your
planogram, its thumbnail background changes to a lighter color in
the catalog, helping you identify the items already used:
Tips:
- There are times when you may want to
temporarily disable collisions to avoid displacing other items
while placing n accessory. Hold the C key pressed while
dragging the item to achieve this. Collisions can also be entirely
disabled in Collisions
(Settings), or for specific accessories in Collisions (Item
properties) in case they must overlap.
- If you have room elements in your project,
you may want to hide them while working with products, so the walls
are not blocking the view of shelving (consult View the
room).
- Margins have no effect on accessories in
Parameters
(Selected shelves) and in Parameters (Selected
back panels): accessories can always be placed on the whole
surface of shelves and back panels.
- Max. of products on
width has no effect on accessories: you can place as many as
will fit on the shelves or back panel.
