- In the expanded Tree Menu, click Setup | Catalog Views | New Catalog View.
The Advanced Administration Application displays a blank New Catalog View form, displaying:
- Name text box
- Description text box
- Supplier
- Home Organization drop-down menu
- Click in the Name text box, and type a name for the new catalog view.
- Click in the Description text box, and type a description for the new catalog view (maximum 255 characters).
- If you want to assign a Home Organization to this Catalog View, click in the Home Organization drop-down menu and select from the list of available Buying Organizations.
Note: You may not be able to assign a Home Organization at this point, but rather accept the default setting. This is because this field may only contain seed data. In order to populate this field, you must first create your Buying Organizations, see New Organization. Once you set up your organizations, the Home Organization box populates with available organizations. See Restricting Visibility. For more information on Home Organizations, see Key Concepts.
