Products categorization allows flexible description of their properties and provides
the system with additional search criteria (filtering) applied to the catalogue information.
ОJoining properties in categories allows the system to display comparative information
on group of products (chosen by the customer) on different WEB pages which allows the
customer to choose quickly the product meeting his criteria.
- Products [screens] are described with respect
to name, description, overview, part number of the retailer and the manufacturer, expire
date and etc.
- There is information on every product price,
comprising of:
o End price - price for end-users;
o Sale price - in case product is in promotion;
o Dealer price - level 1;
o Dealer price - level 2, higher discount;
o Currency – the currency of the price; it may differ
the currency of the transaction.
o Date – оthe date when the prices become into force.
The system stores information on past product prices which allows entering of “future” prices,
i.e. prices which shall become valid on a specific date and time in the future. Customers
are always being displayed the up-to-date price, i.e. the price valid on the current date
and time.
The system allows saving product prices in several different currencies for traders
convenience. The moment an order is placed prices are calculated in the currency of the
transaction (in Bulgaria it is BGN) using the current exchange rate.
- Every product, department or store may have an “image”
(one or several) of GIF, JPG or SWF (Flash animation) format to be displayed on the
relevant product pages thus contributing to their attractiveness.
