Product Listings Window

Use this window to browse, research, add, and manage product listings for your A/E firm's projects.

The Product Listings window enables your product selection workflow. You can use the available features to browse, filter, research, and select products for your projects. This window has the following main features which allow you to perform the following tasks:

Feature Description
Product Listing Filters This window provides multiple filters which enable you to search for specific listings and refine your product selection. The filters that you set apply to the available product listings on both the Products tab and the Related Products tab.
Products Tab This tab displays the available product listings of type Premium MasterSpec, Premium, and Manufacturer based on your set product listing filters. The product listings are in the form of product listing cards.

Use the Products tab to browse and research products that you can add to your A/E firm's project specifications.

Related Products Tab This tab displays the available related products (as product listing cards) based on your selected category and product listing filters. Use the Related Products tab to explore products (of type Premium Proprietary) that are available outside MasterSpec families.
Related Products Banner Similar to the Related products tab, use this banner to explore all related products based on your selected category. This banner displays the related premium proprietary product listings as mini-product listing cards organized by their proprietary families.
