What is it?

According to pre-defined rules, the Normalization module helps you detect and correct errors or missing information in your catalog, ensuring compliance with business or regulatory requirements.

How does it work?

• Error Detection: The system checks your catalog for predefined errors (e.g., selling price must be higher than buying price, missing mandatory values like EAN or price) and alerts you when corrections are needed.
• Unified Experience: This module ensures a consistent experience across your product catalog by enforcing these rules.

Key Features

• Edit Rows: The system automatically displays rows that need checking. You can review and edit one row at a time.
• Batch Corrections: If you edit multiple rows, your corrections will apply to all of them at once.
• Media Files Review: Ensure that media attributes (like images) are properly populated. You can add media files from previous imports or upload new ones.

How to Correct and Validate Rows

1. Select the row you want to check.
2. Click the edit button to see the detected errors.
3. Review the description under each attribute with an error.
4. Make corrections and save them.
5. Once all rows are corrected, validate the entire step.

Note: All “errored” rows must be validated to proceed to the next stage. Warnings can be ignored.

Media Files

For media attributes, use the "Add media" option to attach images or files. You can apply the same media to multiple rows if necessary.

If you're connected to Akeneo PIM, ensure that your media naming conventions align with your catalog’s rules to automatically relink media after updates.

1. Select a product row and Edit to open the side panel.
2. You can modify the display table by selecting only the visible columns you want.
