What will you be able to do after following this guide?

Create your own product catalog (up to 3 levels) → add products with variations and prices → quickly import entire product lines from a website link → retrieve images from PDF catalogs and crop/edit them directly in the Media Library → set up inventory → push products to Shopee/Lazada/TikTok with catalog mapping . From an empty catalog to a full-of-product multi-channel store, all in one system.

Prepare in advance

1. Log in to GTG CRM and be granted permission to manage Products. — Product/category/inventory management permissions are granted by the workspace administrator.

2. (Input from website) There is a store/product page link and trial credit remaining. — Each page scan costs a small amount of credit.

3. (For platform synchronization) Shopee/Lazada/TikTok Shop account connected. — To download to/upload to these platforms.

Step 1 — Create your own categories (up to 3 levels)

  1. Go to Products , open the form to create/edit a product, and then to the Category field.
  2. Click "Add new category" .
  3. Type the category name (e.g., Gaming ).
  4. (Optional) Select Parent Category — to see Level 1 / Level 2 labels on each selection; to see all 3 levels , select an item that is currently Level 2 (the item with the › symbol).
  5. Look at the "Preview" section — for example, Đồ điện tử › Laptop › Gaming — 3 cấp — then click Save .

✅ Expected result : The new category appears in the category selector as a hierarchical tree. Older products (if any) will remain in "Old Category" in read-only mode until you reclassify them.

💡 Tip : 1-2 levels are sufficient for most stores. The platform's category tree (Shopee/Lazada/TikTok) is only used when uploading products to the platform (Step 6).

Step 2 — Add products & variations

  1. In Products , click Create New Product.
  2. Fill in the name, SKU, category, brand, description, and specifications .
  3. Add variations (color, size… up to 3 attributes); each variation has its own SKU and price.
  4. Enter the original price, VAT, and selling price — the system will automatically calculate the profit .

✅ Expected outcome : The product is saved with all variations; the price list displays automatically calculated profit for each variation.

Step 3 — Import products in bulk from the website link

  1. In Products , select Import products from website .
  2. Paste the link (a product page, or a category page / "all products"), set the maximum number of products , tick the box to agree, and then click Scan page .
  3. (Optional) Enable "Get full details" to have the system open each product page and retrieve the complete set of images, descriptions, specifications, and variations.
  4. On the browsing screen: edit name/price/category/SKU/description/brand/barcode/specifications/variants ; deselect unnecessary products; select images to keep and set a cover image (★) .
  5. Click Create .

✅ Expected result : Products are created in the catalog exactly as approved — including brand, barcode, specifications, variations, selected photo set and cover image; suggested categories are matched to your own catalog .

Step 4 — Import images from the PDF catalog and crop/edit them on the spot.

  1. When creating/editing a product, click the image box to open the Media Library .
  2. To import images from a PDF catalog , drag the supplier's catalog file into the folder, and then select the images you want.
  3. With any image, use the cropping/reshaping tools available in the library to adjust the frame.
  4. Assign images to products/variants.

✅ Expected result : Images from the PDF are imported into the library (keeping the original file names), and can be edited directly without leaving the product form.

Step 5 — Setting up the warehouse

  1. Go to the Warehouse section and create a warehouse (name, code, address, contact person).
  2. Link products to warehouses and track inventory levels for each warehouse.

✅ Expected outcome : There is at least one warehouse; inventory is displayed by warehouse for each product.

Step 6 — List your product on the marketplace using category mapping

  1. Connect your account to a marketplace (Shopee/Lazada/TikTok Shop) if you don't already have one.
  2. Select the product you want to push → Push it onto the floor .
  3. When asked for the platform category, view the suggested category and confirm (or re-select).

✅ Expected outcome : The product is listed on the platform with a confirmed platform category; the category mapping is remembered so that it doesn't need to be re-selected for subsequent listings.

Quick lookup table for expected results

Add a new category with the parent category "Level 2" — Preview shows A › B › C — 3 cấp , save as a 3-level category.

Scan a store link — A draft product list with images, brand, barcode, specifications, and variations is available for browsing.

Drag the PDF catalog into the Media Library — Images from the PDF will appear for selection, preserving the original file names.

List your product on the marketplace — Check the marketplace category suggestion box for confirmation; remember to map it yourself next time.

Note

  • The old categories (based on the previous floor classification tree) are not deleted — they remain read-only until you reclassify them using your own categories.
  • Importing from websites consumes a small amount of credits per scan — always displayed before running.
  • The catalog tree provided by the platform is only used in the uploading step (catalog mapping), not for organizing your internal catalogs.
