Manage Item Descriptions

Creating and applying consistent item description schemes improves data quality. NuVia descriptions are created using 22 key differentiating item attributes. In Description Generation, you can create custom description schemes for your item descriptions.

When you create description schemes, you establish rules for the following:

• Description character length – The max number of characters in an item description
• Attribute order – The order in which key differentiating attributes are shown in an item description
• Abbreviation – The abbreviation of descriptors

A copy of your organization's abbreviation dictionary is available in Description Generation. You can add to, edit, or remove terms and abbreviations from your dictionary. Using the Abbreviation Analysis report you can track the number of times an abbreviation is used in your item descriptions.

After creating your description schemes and managing abbreviations, set a schedule for automatically regenerating your item descriptions as often as you load your item files in NuVia.
