When your location needs to add new parts online, there’s a specific process to follow so that product information is complete, accurate, and formatted correctly for our system. This article outlines everything your team needs to provide.
🔹 Step 1: Request New Parts for Online Listing
When you decide you want to put new parts online, they need to be in Visual first. Please email Julia Hartley to confirm which products you want to make available online.
Once confirmed, the eCommerce team will pull basic product details from Visual, including part numbers, descriptions, pricing, and weights.
If additional information is needed — such as specifications, product attributes, or images — the site will be asked to update the Attribute Template with the missing details.
🔹 Step 2: Complete or Update the Attribute Template
Once the initial data is populated, the Attribute Template will be shared with the site for review.
Please update any missing fields and add any additional details specific to your product type before returning it for import.
