With Multi-Store Merchandising, you can create clusters of stores that share the same catalog languages and currencies, allowing you to apply consistent merchandising rules across those stores. Easily boost products, pin or exclude specific products across all stores within the selected cluster.
To apply merchandising rules to multiple stores by creating a cluster, please ensure that all stores in a cluster have:
- The same category names.
- The same Product IDs & SKUs
- Same product attributes & values (key-values)
Creating a New Cluster
To create a new cluster:
- Navigate to Smart Category Merchandising → Multi Store, and click on Merchandise Now button.
- Click on Create New Cluster, and then:
- Primary Store: Select the store where you will be primarily merchandising. Rules that you create on this store will apply to all others in the cluster.
- Linked Stores: Select the stores where you want the merchandising rules from the primary store to be applied. You can select multiple stores, as long as they meet the pre-requisites.
Once the cluster is created, the default rules and scheduled campaigns from the primary store will automatically apply to the linked stores. It may take approximately 10 minutes for these rules to reflect on the storefront.
After creating a cluster, any new merchandising rules you create on the primary store will automatically apply to all linked stores within that cluster.
Merchandising a Multi Store Cluster
- From the Multi Store Merchandising page, you can select Merchandise → to merchandise on a specific cluster.
- Alternatively, you can visit Smart Category Merchandising → Single Store by selecting the Primary Store (From Header Store Dropdown) to manage the merchandising of that cluster.
You can refer our Default Rules Guide and Scheduled Campaign Guide to set up merchandising rules.
