  1. Gather the manufacturer details

    Review names, websites, descriptions, optional translations, and logo references from the selected shared list.

  2. Check required fields and unique names

  3. Review descriptions and translations

    Check that translated names and descriptions are paired with the intended supported language and remain consistent with the source details.

  4. Inspect logo files and references

    Confirm that each logo link points to an accessible image in an accepted format and belongs to the intended manufacturer.

  5. Prepare proposed catalog records

    Bring each complete record and its supporting details together for an owner to inspect.

    Require a catalog owner to verify the record and logo and approve the exact additions before the store is changed.

The handoff

A review queue of manufacturer records with proposed names, descriptions, translations, and logos, awaiting approval before they are added to the store.

Keep in mind

Names must be unique, language settings must be supported, and logo links may be unavailable or unsuitable. Verify the source and every field; require an authorized catalog owner to approve each record and logo before anything is added.

Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Set catalog ownership and approval

Name who resolves duplicates, checks translations and artwork, and approves new manufacturer records.

Test complete, duplicate, and incomplete records

Review examples with missing fields, translated entries, unavailable logos, and possible duplicate names; confirm none are added before approval.
