Advanced Product Selection
Advanced Product Selection lets you match products with rules instead of ticking each one. The app marks this Beta. It is the Advanced choice on a product schedule, not the choice you use when you are scheduling a collection itself.
An extra filter on top of a selection (sold in the last few days, or order count) is not on the form. Use these rules instead.
🚀 Why Use Advanced Selection?
- Automation: The rules run when the schedule runs, so products that match on that day are included. It is not a frozen list of products.
- Speed: Select hundreds of products in seconds by defining simple rules.
- Precision: Filter products by title, type, vendor, price, inventory, and more.
📝 How to Set Up Rules
- Choose "Advanced" when creating or editing a schedule.
- Add a Rule: Click "Add Rule" to start defining your criteria.
- Select a Field: Choose what to filter by (e.g., Product Title, Vendor, Price).
- Choose an Operator: Decide how to match (e.g., equals, contains, is greater than).
- Enter a Value: Type the specific value you are looking for (e.g., "Summer Collection").
Rule Combination Logic
When you have multiple rules, you can choose how they interact:
- AND: Products must match all rules to be selected.
- OR: Products will be selected if they match at least one rule.
🔍 Examples
| Goal | Rule |
|---|---|
| All T-shirts | Product type equals T-shirt |
| One brand | Vendor equals the brand name |
| Sale tag | Product tags has that tag |
| Active only | Status is Active |
| Low inventory | Inventory quantity is less than 10 |
| A price band | Price is between the minimum and the maximum |
| New arrivals | Created at is after the date you pick |
| In a collection | In collection is that collection |
You can also match barcode, SKU, and updated date. Title, barcode, and SKU can contain, exclude, or start with the text you type.
✅ Previewing Results
Before saving your schedule, always click "Preview Matching Products". This allows you to verify that your rules are selecting exactly what you intend.
