Module for adding attributes to categories
By default, Akeneo PIM allows attributes to be set only for products, such as size or color. The client wanted to expand categories and add top-level attributes to them to simplify managing product groups.
We developed a module for adding attributes to categories. Now, Akeneo PIM makes it possible to upload images, enter descriptions (description), and use other custom fields.
Module for automatic generation of a unique ID
In Akeneo PIM, product IDs are assigned manually. Because of the large product flow, the client wanted to simplify this functionality.
Our developers created a module for automatic generation of a unique ID. Now, when a new product is added to Akeneo PIM, it is automatically assigned a unique ID.
Compound attributes module
Another custom Akeneo PIM solution requested by the client was the development of a compound attributes module, that is, attributes made up of other attributes. Now, when creating an attribute, it is possible to specify in the template which attributes should be used for a given category, which helps when generating text for bots, product cards, and more.
