  2. Business to consumer From the Merchandise menu, click Find Catalog Entries.
    Business to business From the Products menu, click Find Catalog Entries.
    The Catalog Entry Search page displays. If you do not see this menu, then your logon ID does not have the appropriate authority to perform this task. Contact your Site Administrator.
  3. Find the product containing the SKU you want to change.
  4. Select a field in the product row containing the SKU you want to change, and from the Actions menu, click Show SKUs.
  5. Use one of the following methods to change the SKU image or location:
    1. Change SKU notebook:
      1. Select a field in the SKU row that you want to change, and from the Actions menu, click Change SKU. The Change SKU notebook opens.
      2. From the left navigation frame, click Images. The Images page displays. You can change the full and thumbnail size SKU images. SKU image files should be placed in the store's defined image directory. If the images are on a remote server, enter the image's URL, for example, http://hostname/images/leathercoat_full.gif. If the images are on the WebSphere Commerce server, enter a path relative to the store's root directory. For example, the ConsumerDirect starter store would use the following relative paths:
        • WebSphere Commerce development environment SKU images are stored in WCDE_installdir\workspace\Stores\Web Content\ConsumerDirect\images\catalog.
          To change the full size image, in the Full size image file and location field, type \images\catalog\leathercoat_full.gif.
