Product Associations

Product Associations

Use Product Associations to associate one product with another.  This can be used to populate a carousel on product details pages, to require the purchase of a product when another is added to cart, and to offer optional products for purchase.

To ensure that you can see the product association:

1. Go to Administration Index > Products > Details Settings
2. Look for "Show Related Product Carousel" tick the checkbox to ☑️ Active.



Importing Product Associations

  1. From the Administration Index go to Products > Associations
  2. Click Export at the bottom of the page to export existing Associations.
  3. Open your file with a spreadsheet application
  4. Add your association data and save the file as a CSV (Comma Delimited) file
  5. On the Associations page, Click Import and select your updated file
  6. Click Open to import your new data
Example Sheet

Associations are 1-way, in the example above the lens, tripod and case would display on the camera page but the camera would not show on their respective pages. For a two way association you would need additional lines with the lens, tripod and case in the PartNum column.

Fields

PartNum - Part number of the product where the associations should appear
AssocPartNum - Part number of the associated product
ProductAssociationType - Related
Please contact support if you need additional association types added.

  2. Click the red X to remove any of the listed associations
