Trade Catalog: Overview of Sections

The Commercial Catalog in Bitrix24 serves as a unified catalog of products and services for CRM and online stores. It helps maintain up-to-date information on items, expedites document generation in CRM, and automates data exchange with external systems.

The sections of the Commercial Catalog cover essential data and settings:

• products, services, and variations
• prices, price types, markups, and rounding rules
• product properties and their values
• catalog structure and product images
• units of measurement, coefficients, and VAT rates
• warehouses, stock levels, and inventory documents
