The “Product Manager – Folders” Field Set determines the folder structure of the products in the GSP Product Manager.

For example, if you add Product Family & Product Type to the field set, when the Product Manager loads, you will see all your Product Family values as the top-level folders. When you expand a folder, you will then see the Product Type Folders as the secondary level. Expanding this will then allow you to see the products in that folder. Any products that cannot be categorized will appear at the bottom of the folder structure.

Follow these steps to adjust the field set
