The Product List and Search

The Product List in Jasper, located from the Products section of the main PIM menu on the left hand side, is your main view into your product catalog. From here you can view your products, perform simple and advanced searches, and perform batch actions on a selection of products.

The Product List

The Product List shows your entire product catalog organized by ascending Jasper ID. The following fields of information are available:

Thumbnail

The image asset on the product set to the thumbnail

Product Information

The name of the product and the Jasper ID. Clicking on the name, takes you to the product details screen

SKU

Your unique product identifier

Brand

Displays a brand that is linked to the product (if any)

Visibility

Displays whether the product is made visible or not visible on the store front

View Button

Allows to view the product details

At the top of the page you will see your search window as well as the Create Product and Batch Action buttons. At the bottom of the window you can select the number of products to display per page between 10 and 100 and click through each page.

Product Search

As your product catalog grows within Jasper PIM you will need to regularly visit specific products or groups of products to perform updates and make edits. There are three methods of searching for products inside Jasper PIM.

1- Quick Search

The quick search in the top bar can be accessed from any page. If you know the exact product identifier, select it from the drop down and type or paste it into the field.

  • SKU - your internal identifier

  • PCSID - Jasper's automatically assigned ID number

  • WEBID - the published channel's identifier

  • UPC - Universal Product Code (if assigned)

When using Google Chrome with Jasper PIM you can use a combination of CTRL + Click (Windows), or CMD + Click (Mac) on the search icon to open the results in a new background tab to keep your current place while quickly jumping to a new product.

2- Product List - Simple Search

To perform a simple search query go to the product list from the left side menu. From the product list you have access to a simple search box. Here you can use short exact match phrases to find products or similar products. This will look at product names and descriptions to find a match.

NOTE: the search looks for the exact word or words in the order in which they were used, similar to wrapping the phrase in quotations on typical boolean search. (ex. 'Green Shirt' and 'Shirt - Green' will not show up under the same query).

3- Product List - Advanced Search

Jasper's advanced search allows you to narrow down your product catalog into easily digestible pieces. From the product list, access the advanced search feature by clicking advanced next to the search box.

Criteria

The search criteria section allows more flexibility to narrow your product results. Using the + button to add multiple types of the same criteria perform AND based searches.

The text box allows you to search a string from a specific field. Default PIM fields and any custom created text attributes are available. NOTE: select box and multi-select attributes are case sensitive. The available qualifiers are:

  • Within

  • Not Within

  • Equal

  • Not Equal

Number range searches are available for default PIM fields and allow you to find products that lie between a range of values. This is most useful for pricing and PCSID ranges.

The number equals criteria uses mathematical relationship qualifiers to find items among default PIM fields. The available qualifiers are:

  • = - Equals

  • != - Does not equal

  • > - Greater than

  • - Less than

  • >= - Greater than or equal to

  • = - Less than or equal to

You are comparing all product values against the value you enter in the criteria box. (ex. 161 > PCSID will return all PCSIDs that are greater than 161. It helps to pick the field then your qualifier than your value so that you are choosing [PCSIDs] that are [greater than (>)] [161]. Do not think about it as an equation).

Sorting

You can sort your search results by the following fields in ascending or descending order.

Display Photos

If you have a large product catalog you can speed up search results by unchecking the box marked Display Photos.

Add New Condition

You can add a new search filter to the existing search filter using the AND search command.

  1. Input your search string, filter, and criteria

  2. Click the “Save Project” button next to the Filter button
