How to group planograms

To create a planogram group:

Go to store plan edit mode;
Select multiple planograms holding Ctrl (Windows) / Command (macOS) and click "Merge planograms" on the toolbar;

Important! The maximum number of planograms in a group is 5. If more than 5 planograms are selected, unlink one or more planograms to add new ones.

The "Planogram selection" block displays planograms not yet added to the group;

To add a planogram to the group, hover over it and click "Add".

To quickly find a planogram, use the search by name / number, or filter by categories, brands, planogram status, equipment type or product availability.

Planogram group editing mode

All planograms in the group are displayed in edit mode. The active planogram is the one you are currently working with. It is highlighted with an orange border, name and label on the bottom panel. To switch to another planogram, click on it.

To change the order of planograms, hold the right mouse button on the planogram name and drag it.

The following actions are available in the top right corner of each planogram:

Unpin — the planogram unpins and can be moved anywhere on the page:

To move it, hold the left mouse button on the header and drag to the desired location. To resize the work area, drag the bottom right corner;

Pin — returns the unpinned planogram to the work area, placing it last :

Collapse — hides the planogram from the work area:

A collapsed planogram is displayed on the bottom panel with a grey label. To expand, click on it.

At the bottom of each planogram is a toolbar. Depending on the size of the planogram's workspace, the buttons are displayed on the toolbar or grouped under the "More Options" (⋮) menu:

3D model — depending on the size of the work area, displays 3D only or both 2D and 3D view;
Display equipment dimensions;
Display equipment back / front side — available only if the planogram has a central upright;
Hide info elements — if info elements (text, POS materials) are absent, the button is inactive;
Display products in boxes — available only if the planograms have boxes;
Show articles;
Display product sequence number;
Scale (+-) — step 20%.

Unlike the individual planogram toolbar, a shared toolbar is located at the bottom of the work area and applies to all planograms in the group simultaneously:

Arrange planograms — if unpinned planograms or open shelves overlap each other, click the button to close the shelves and sort planograms according to the group settings:

Display products in boxes — displayed only if all planograms in the group have boxes;
Display equipment dimensions;
Show articles;
Display equipment back / front side — available only if all planograms in the group contain a central upright;
Display product sequence number;

Note! To change the settings of only one planogram, use the toolbar of that planogram.

Product list in group editing mode

Several grouping options are available for working with the product list. Choose the one that best suits your task.

"By planograms" grouping is set automatically. This allows you to quickly view products of each planogram separately.

To view a planogram's product list, click the arrow (>) next to its name. A product added to multiple planograms is displayed in each of them.

"By brand" or "By category (level)" grouping helps quickly find products by the corresponding attribute.
Click on a product to highlight it on all planograms simultaneously. To delete a product from all group planograms: press Del (Windows) / Fn + Delete (macOS) on the keyboard.
Read more about deleting products from a planogram in the article.

To disable grouping and view all products in one list: click "More actions" (⋮) → "Group products" → "By planograms".

The following tools are available at the top of the "Products" panel for working with all group planograms simultaneously:

Remove products — clears the product list and layout on all planograms;
Uploud product list — click to upload a product list from an Excel file;
Add products;
Display — click to filter products by status: All, Placed, Not placed, Active, Inactive, With stock, Without stock.

Hover over a planogram in the "By planograms" grouping to use tools for that planogram only:

Add products;
Uploud product list;
Uploud layout;
Remove product.

If the work area is not enough, for example when multiple planograms and shelves are open at the same time — click "Close panel" to hide the "Products" panel and expand the workspace. To expand the panel, click again:

Product layout in planogram group

To place a product on any planogram in the group, hold it in the list and drag it to the required equipment element.
Read more about product layout in the article.

To quickly lay out products without placing them manually, use autoplacement or layout rules. Products will be automatically placed on the active planogram in one click.
Read more about autoplacement in the article.

To upload a layout from an Excel file, click "Upload layout" next to the required planogram in the "By planograms" grouping.
Read more about uploading a layout in the article.

A key feature of group edit mode is the ability to move products between planograms. Hold a product and drag it to another planogram — after moving, it automatically becomes active, and the product is added to its list if it was not there before.

Top toolbar tools apply only to the active planogram. When switching between planograms, the state of buttons and settings remains individual for each of them:

Info elements (Text, POS materials) — allow adding text and POS materials to the planogram for visual presentation. Do not affect product layout and always appear on top of other objects;
