4. Additional Features on Item Records

When you are on a specific item record, the "Actions" button located at the top right offers a series of features allowing you to manage your item more effectively. Here is a complete detail of the available options:

• Edit the item:
  • This option allows you to directly access the item record in edit mode. You can then make all the necessary modifications, whether it be the description, category, or any other information related to the item.

• Duplicate the item:
  • If you want to create a similar item or keep a specific layout for your records, this function is very useful. It allows you to make a complete copy of your item, including all information (title, description, classification). Note that you also have the option to duplicate or not the images associated with the item.

• Move the item:
  • This function allows you to change the collection associated with your item. If, for example, you have multiple collections and want to reorganize your items, this option makes it easy to move an item from one collection to another.

• Print the record:
  • If you want a physical copy of your item record or save it in PDF format, use this option. It offers an optimized layout for printing, ensuring that all relevant information about the item is clearly visible.

• Delete the item:
  • Proceed with caution when using this option. Once you delete an item, it is permanently removed from the platform and cannot be recovered. Make sure you have backup copies of all important information before proceeding to delete.
