Overview
Hierarchy and attributes defined by source systems can often be difficult and time-consuming to change. To help you work more efficiently, Style Arcade enables the creation of Custom Fields and Layouts, giving greater flexibility to:
Group products and analyse data from different perspectives
Create more flexible reporting and uncover key insights
Customise Product card layouts to highlight the most relevant information
Permissions and Access
Owner users can enable access to Custom Fields for other users in user settings.
To allow users permissions to use & edit custom fields:
1. Create a new user role and select whether this role requires View, Edit or access to both permissions and click Save
2. Assign this role to users as required
Setting up Custom Fields
To begin creating a custom field, navigate to the Settings page > Create fields
Click Add and Select the type of field you are creating
Name your custom field (Tip: Add emojis to enhance field names 🛍️🍃)
Single Select fields will require the options to be populated for selection. You can do this by typing directly into the modal or using copy/ paste from another file. Once all field options are entered, click Save.
This step is not required for other field types as they are populated in the Products page.
4. The Custom Field will automatically appear in your Product card under Product Information, Rollups, and in the filters across all pages.
5. To assign your Custom Field to products, navigate to the Products page and search or filter to the products you wish to update. Products can be updated individually or in multiple. 👇 Click to view the instructions below.
