Catalogue Group Guide

Once you have created the Catalogue Items, you can now group them together. Here’s how to create a Catalogue Group:

Control > Commerce > Catalogue Groups

• Name: Enter a name for this Catalogue Group. [required]
• Description: Enter a description for this Catalogue Group.
• Show Catalogue Group: Select to display the Catalogue Group options on the Basket or Product detail screen.
• Catalogue Group Name Override: Select to use the Catalogue Group Name on the Product Detail and Basket instead of the Product Name. This name will also be used on the Promotion Channel where a Catalogue Item has been selected belonging to this group.
• Catalogue Items: Select the Catalogue Items for this Group. You must have a Payment Method on the Catalogue Item for it to be shown. Sort the order in which they are displayed on the basket screen of the checkout.
  

Each of your catalogue items will have an associated article of type Product.

Every product article has the 'Hide from Listing' option (within the Advanced panel).

This option is used to display the products (from your catalogue group) that you want listed and hide the ones you dont.

Example:

• Product 1 (Hide from Listing disabled)
• Product 2 (Hide from Listing enabled)
• Product 3 (Hide from Listing enabled)

In the above scenario, Product 1 will be displayed and Products 2 and 3 will not.

Thus, when someone buys the one that isnt hidden (Product 1) they will see the other two (Product 2 & Product 3) as options in the basket.

On the Catalogue Item, you have a Catalogue Group Title, here you can add an alternative label if you don’t wish to display the Catalogue Item name. For example, rather than displaying Digital Edition GoCardless, you can display Pay by Direct Debit
