Product configuration profile and set

Clicking on a GS product from the product list screen opens a side navigation bar which contains the product summary. The summary tab here provides information on the communication profiles and set linked to this particular product. The communication summary includes the individual profiles or set linked for sustainable attributes, impact mapping and eco contributions. Individual profiles of sustainable attributes, impact mapping and eco contributions make up one set. 

Linking product configuration profiles or set is essential and is the last step for the widgets to display on your website. Once the profiles or set is attached to a GS product, which is linked to an e-commerce product for that particular store, the configured widgets will begin to render on the website for that store. 

Note: Eco contribution profiles are only available for offset clients and is available as a part of the set only for offset clients.

For offset clients:

1 Sustainable attribute profile + 1 Impact mapping profile + 1 eco contribution profile = 1 communication set

For impact only clients: 

1 Sustainable attribute profile + 1 Impact mapping profile  = 1 communication set

Linking individual profiles:

• For sustainable attributes and impact mapping: 

  • Clicking on ‘add’ against sustainable attributes and impact mapping opens a popup to select from the list of profiles you have already configured in the sustainable attributes and impact mapping modules.

  •  If any of the product attributes in SA profile have part levels attributes attached to it, you have the option to also link part-level attribute profiles if available for that particular product attribute

• For eco contributions (only for offset clients):

• 
  

  • Clicking on choose metrics allows you to select the metrics for which you want to link project distribution profiles to the product. 

  • Selecting the metric, will automatically affix the project distribution for that particular metric as there is only one project distribution profile available per metric.

You can create a communication set which has individual profiles of sustainable attributes and impact mapping and eco contributions. This set can be attached to a product. Clicking on link set opens a popup with all the sets you have created.
