            Change the Product Attribute Display Sequence in the Product Console

            In the product catalog, you can override or update the display sequence for the attribute and the attribute category in the context of the product.

            An attribute category contains a set of attributes with a default display sequence. When the attributes are associated with a product, the attribute display sequences are inherited. You can choose to either accept or override the default display sequence of the attributes within the attribute category.

            For a standalone product, the ability to change the attribute display sequence is on the attribute assignment. The display sequence of an attribute represents the order of an attribute within an attribute category.

            example
            example

            • Product: iPhone8:

              • Attr.Category: Mobile_Handset (Seq:11): This sequence represents the sequence of attribute category for the iPhone8.

                • Attr: 1. Color (Red, White, Black): 1 represents the sequence of attributes within the Mobile_Handset category.

                • Attr: 2. Storage (32 G, 64 G).

              • Attr.Category: Mobile_Handset_Manufacturer (Seq:12): This sequence also represents the sequence of attribute category for the iPhone8.

                • Attr: 1. Manufacturer: 1 represents the sequence of attributes within the Mobile_Handset category.

                • Attr: 2. Model.

            When adding the above product to the CPQ cart, the attribute and attribute category appear in the cart according to the sequence defined above.

            Now, for a Samsung Galaxy Phone, you can use the same attributes as you did for the iPhone8 but in a different sequence, as follows:

            • Product: Samsung Galaxy:

              • Attr.Category: Mobile_Handset (Seq: -11- 12): This sequence represents the sequence of attribute category for the iPhone8.

                • Attr: 1>2. Color (Red, White, Black): 2 represents the sequence of attributes within the Mobile_Handset category.

                • Attr:  -2 -1. Storage (32 G, 64 G).

              • Attr.Category: Mobile_Handset_Manufacturer (Seq:12>11): This sequence also represents the sequence of attribute category for the iPhone8.

                • Attr: 1>2. Manufacturer: 1 represents the sequence of attributes within the Mobile_Handset category.

                • Attr: 2>1. Model.

            When adding the Samsung Galaxy product to the CPQ cart, the attribute and attribute category appear in the overridden display sequence.

            To change the product attribute display sequence as it will appear in the Industries Cart:

            Note
            Note

            If the attributes belong to different attribute categories, sorting occurs according to the attribute category that already exists. Inside the attribute category, attributes are sorted according to your change.

            1. In the Product Console, click the search icon beside Product and search for any given product.

              The Search Results page appears.

            2. Click a product from the list of search results. The page for that product appears.
            3. Click the General Properties facet on the left.
            4. In the Object Types field, search for an object type and click Select.
              Example of a search for the Internet object type
            5. Enter any other required information, such as the Product Code.
            6. Click the Attributes and Fields facet.
            7. Click any attribute.
            8. Change the number in the Display Sequence field.
              Example of the Display Sequence field set to 1 for the Access Speed attribute
            9. Click Save.

              The attributeDisplaySequence is passed as part of the response to the product and to the ObjectType calls. The attributeDisplaySequence is also sent as a parameter when other attribute properties are modified through the product. The JSON on the product is updated and the new display sequence appears at runtime in the CPQ cart.
