Modify category details

You can modify the short description and long description of a category.

1. Navigate to the Catalog Management Screen. To navigate to the Catalog Management screen, perform the following steps:
   1. Log in to Sterling™ Business Center as an Item Administrator.
   2. The application home page is displayed. Click the Products tab.
   3. From the Products home page, click Manage Catalogs in the Catalog dashlet.
   4. The Catalog List screen is displayed. Click the Catalog ID hyperlink corresponding to the catalog for whose category you want to assign an item.

      The Catalog Management screen is displayed.

2. From the Catalog panel, select the category that you want to modify.
3. The Category Detail panel is displayed. Make the necessary modifications:
   • In the Short Description field, modify the brief description of the category.
   • From the Status drop-down list, select the status for the category. You can select any one of the following options:

     - Held (Unpublished): select this to make the category unavailable for order creation.

     - Published: select this to make the category available for order creation.

   • In the Long Description field, modify the detailed description of the category.

     Note: The Catalog ID box is displayed as a read-only box.

4. In the Category Details screen, click Save.
   Note: If more than one locale is configured, the Localize icon is displayed adjacent to all the localizable fields and the Localize related task is displayed in the Related Tasks panel. The localizable fields such as Short Description, Long Description, and so on, are always displayed in the base locale irrespective of the user locale. For example, if Sterling Business Center is localized to French with the base locale as English, and a French user logs in to Sterling Business Center, all the UI literals except the localizable fields are displayed in French. The localizable fields are displayed in English. The user can click either the Localize icon or Localize to localize a field that is displayed in the base locale.

   The category is modified. After modifying the category details, you can now manage items for the category.
