Set-up Item 3rd Party Web Categories

Many 3rd party auction sites require that all items to be categorized upon upload (i.e. Bidsquare and Ebay).

FWS allows the admin to establish a parallel set of categories for easy upload to a 3rd-party auction site.


1) Select Number of Category tiers:
 (minimum = 1 tier / maximum = 3 tiers)

Create up to 3 levels (e.g. Advertising / Ceramic / Clock)

 

 

2) Add Categories by selecting "New Category": 

Add a Tier 1 category by adding the name only. Add a tier 2 or tier 3 category by adding a name and the "Parent Category" (the category directly above it). In the example above, Advertising/Ceramic also has several types of 3rd tier categories named "clock", "clothing", Counter Display" and "Country Store Items".

Example: This example shows the Bidsquare (www.bidsquare.com) categories that are required when uploading a sale. This removes a lot of work when uploading to 3rd party websites where categories are required. Items are categorized early in the process during the cataloging phase.
