Using link attributes

When creating the items under a catalog, items from the target catalog are used as values of link attributes. Linked attribute values are displayed using the destination attribute picked on the Catalog Attributes screen.

Manual entry of linked attribute values

You can manually enter the values directly into the link attribute editor.

In the new business user interface, if a display attribute is used instead of the primary key of the destination catalog, value of the display attribute is used for display purposes.

The system then looks up the corresponding item using this value in the destination catalog and retrieves the primary key of the destination item for storage as the value of link attribute.
