Editing Multi-Valued Attributes

To edit the value of an attribute on an object, navigate to the desired object in Tree and select the value field of the relevant attribute.

A multi-valued attribute is an attribute that can contain more than one value for a specific object.

Note: Multi-valued attributes are available for specification and description attributes. Multi-valued attributes are represented by three dots at the bottom of the icon, for example:

  1. In Tree, select the relevant node to open an editor.
  1. Depending on the editor, click the Product tab, Classification tab or Images & Documents tab.  
  2. Double-click the value field of the relevant attribute. The Value Editor dialog box displays, as shown below for a multi-valued text attribute and a multi-valued large LOV attribute.

Note: Editing large LOVs, those with more than 5,000 values, includes a Filter Values button(). For more information, refer to the Working with Large LOVs section of the List of Values (LOVs) topic here.

  1. Click Add Value to add a new line, or click into the line to change the value. To delete a value, highlight it right-click on the arrow and press 'Remove Value.'  

 

  1. It is possible to select in which order the values of the multi-valued attribute should appear. the order can be changed by using the buttons Up and Down.

  1. Click OK when finished. If the node is a product containing sub products, the new values will be inherited to them. If it is a sub product, the values will be local and only apply to this product. If the attribute has units applied, the user can either key in the relevant units, or press <Alt> + <F2> to select a unit from the list. The example below is with a number validation base type with units applied.
