Style Details
The Details section is where you store all the important information about your style. This information helps everyone in your company - from designers to production teams - understand and work with your style.
Quick Check - Before You Start
- Open the correct style record in Style and go to the Details section before editing fields.
- If a dropdown is missing the value you need, configure it in the linked Site Settings page for that field (for example Category, Collection, or Staff).

Next Steps
Troubleshooting
A dropdown is empty or missing the option I need—what should I check?
Dropdown lists for fields such as Category, Collection, Critical Path, Brand, and Department are maintained in Site Settings, not on the style record itself.
Steps to resolve:
- Note which field is missing a value.
- Open the Site Settings article linked in the Details field table for that column (for example Style > Category or Order > Department).
- Add or enable the required entry there, then return to the style and select it from the dropdown.
Why can I not find a style by its number in search?
Inconsistent Style No. formatting makes records harder to locate and can break expectations in reports or imports.
Steps to resolve:
- Agree on a single format for style numbers (prefixes, season codes, padding).
- Update the Style No. on the Details tab to match that format.
- Use the same format when creating new styles.
Where do I update Additional Markets for many styles at once?
Additional Markets can be edited on each style’s Details tab, but bulk updates are supported from search.
Steps to resolve:
- Go to Search > Style.
- Find the styles you need and use the view that supports editing Additional Markets as described on this page.
- Apply changes there for quicker updates across multiple styles.
