Channel Management

What are channels?

• A channel is an isolated unit for managing product data. It defines data sources, rules, data targets, and planned tasks.
• You can create multiple channels to split your stock by store, language, or use case.
• You can use separate channels for different shop interfaces, such as B2B and B2C or desktop and mobile.
• Each channel can use its own data feed. Multiple channels can also share one feed and use different configurations for suggest, filters, and ranking rules.
• Channel settings can be inherited. With Multi-Channel Functionality, you can define parent and child channels and override inherited settings where needed.
