Linked Images for Items

Module: Purchase Orders › Catalog Management › Linked Images for Items

Note: Each procedure in this guide begins at the Contract Insight homepage, so any section can be followed on its own. Custom fields are configurable, so the exact field list on a contract category record may vary between environments.

1. Overview

Individual catalog items are managed through the Settings action next to each item row in a catalog's item table. This per-item Catalog item settings panel is where item-level configuration for that catalog is set. The wiki-era terminology of a separate “Linked Images” screen now lives inside this per-item Settings panel rather than as its own page.

Settings made in this panel apply to the item in this catalog only. The item's own price and details are unchanged elsewhere.


2. Key Elements

  • Procurement → Catalogs lists every purchasing catalog, with its type, item count, shoppers, date window, and status.
  • Each catalog has an Items tab (the items in the catalog) and a Who can shop it tab (the employees allowed to shop it).
  • The Settings action next to each item in the catalog's item table opens that item's Catalog item settings panel.
  • Item-level details are managed from this panel rather than from a standalone screen.


3. Navigating to a Catalog

  1. From the Contract Insight homepage, click the Procurement icon in the left navigation bar.
  2. Select Catalogs.
