Understanding Versions

Most of the time, when making the decision to sell across multiple channels and websites, the sheer amount of effort required to make an impact in each marketplace can be a barrier. Jasper PIM takes the headache out of selling on multiple channels with product Versions.

What Are Versions?

A version in Jasper PIM provides a means of storing distinctive content on a product while maintaining its unique identifying properties such as Brand and SKU. Our flexible approach to Versions allows you to sell in multiple languages or specify unique content within the same language. When working with products, brands or categories, there is a Version selector that will switch between created versions allowing you to create multiple data points for each product within the same edit screen.
