Categories
Product categories are used to better organize your products within Sellbrite. They are meant to easily select products for editing, listing, and managing inventory.
Categories can be assigned to Products either directly in Sellbrite or through a Product CSV Spreadsheet.
From Sellbrite's Settings
Click Settings > Application Settings > Product Categories
Enter the new Sellbrite category name
Click Add
From Sellbrite's Product Catalog
Click Products Tab > All Products.
Select the product(s) you want to categorize
Select the Categorize drop down
Select New Category
Enter your category name
Click Enter when finished
From a Spreadsheet
Begin with a Product CSV Spreadsheet
Fill out the Category Name column on the spreadsheet
Save the spreadsheet and import it to Sellbrite

Make sure to select the checkbox option to "Create New Categories from File", before starting the import
While this is optional, it's recommended to create categories. Doing so will make it easier to select Products for listing and reporting.
It is best to be specific, such as using the channel categories in which you list your products.
For example: If you sell children shoes, "Shoes" would not be the ideal category name. Something like "Baby Shoes" or "Toddler Shoes" would be a better option.
Tags
Tags in Sellbrite are also for internal use, to better organize products and listings within Sellbrite. They are also used to group products together for bulk editing; managing inventory; identifying similar products for listing purposes, and overall organization of your Products and Inventory.
In additional to organizing your products for listings, Product Tags will pass through the associated listings. When a Product Tag is assigned to a product, that tag gets passed to the listing linked to that product. Making it easier to organize and manipulate a set of listings in bulk.
For instance, if you group your listings together with Product Tags, then you can apply Listing Presets or Listing Templates and Recipes to the tagged group. When you need to change listing presets or listing Templates and Recipes on existing listings, then using Product Tags to do so for a group of listings make that task much more manageable.
There are two ways to add and assign Product Tags in Sellbrite.
Assigning Tags Individually
Go to Products > All Products
Find the product you wish to add tag(s) to.
Click on the product name to take you to the edit product page.
Add your tags in the Product Details section located on left hand side of the page. Be sure to save your changes when finished.
Assigning Tags in Bulk
Go to Products tab > All Products
Select the products you wish to add tag(s) to.
Click the "Add Tags" button at the top of the page.
Here you can either create a new tag or add an existing tag(s).
Click "Add Tag" to save the changes.
NOTE: Product tags are unable to be deleted in the Sellbrite application. If you wish to have your tags deleted, please reach out to our support team for assistance.
