How do I add my own items so that they show up on the IMC catalog results?


There are two ways to get your own inventory items to be
displayed in the IMC catalog.  If your item is

vehicle specific and cannot be matched to an existing IMC item, do this.






























As you can see there are two links in the Catalog section of the
control panel for attaching your items (sku's) to the IMC catalog. 
The one below highlighted in blue is for ITEM matching. 
Meaning, you assign your item to IMC'S item and each time the IMC
item is displayed in the catalog your item is displayed.  This
is a good choice for an item that is NOT vehicle specific (maybe a
fluid or generic accessory, or maybe an item that is vehicle
specific but ALWAYS works without exception).



This help screen is an example of how to assign a SKU already in
your inventory file, and then attaching it to a range of vehicles in
the IMC catalog.

 
Step 1 - Choose 'Add IMC
Integrated Applications')



Step 2 - Enter the SKU and MFR of
your own item, and select the Show Cataloged Applications.



Step 3 - If you enter the MFR and
SKU correctly it will be displayed below.  The 'of 5953' refers
to the number of items in your Inventory File.  Next step is to
click 'show catalog'


Step 4 - Click the link labeled
Add Applications




Step 5 - Navigate through the
categories and sub categories and vehicle selection screen. 
When finished click the 'Add Catalog' button below




Step 6 - After assigning the
vehicles you are then able to assign a footnote to each individual
vehicle application, and to ALL applications.  These can also
be left blank, if there is no further qualifying info.  In this
example, the year range does for the part does not match the IMC
catalog data, so it was important to put the note in all the boxes. 
Click 'Save' when done.




Step 7 - Below is a lookup in the
IMC catalog and the webstore's manually added item at the bottom of
the list.
