Smart HS template

The SMART HS template screen is useful for reviewing or deleting previously created templates on the Smart HS search screen.
You use these templates in
Smart HS
 and
Smart HS batch
.
Creating an HS template is a smart decision for several reasons:
  1. Time Efficiency:
     HS templates save time by creating rules that speed up the classification process. Once these rules are in place, you won't need to add characteristics to products.
  2. Consistency and Accuracy:
     by using templates, you ensure consistent and accurate classification across similar products. This reduces the risk of errors and improves the overall reliability of your classification process.
  3. Improved Recognition:
     different templates help you easily distinguish between similar products and classify them correctly.
  4. Batch Processing:
     templates are particularly useful when working with batch classifications. They provide the system with more information, enabling it to handle large volumes of classifications.
Overall, HS templates streamline the classification process, enhance accuracy, and save valuable time, making them an essential tool for efficient product management.
You can access it in two ways:
  • In the
    Smart HS search
     screen, when you get to step 5.
  • From the main
    Global Classification
     menu, selecting
    SMART HS template
    .
