Catalogs tool
Use the Catalogs tool in Management Center to manage catalogs, categories, catalog entries, merchandising associations, product attributes, and attachments in your store.

You define catalog data in groups of categories and products. Catalog data contains descriptions and pricing information for products and services.
Working with content versioning
Category Managers and Product Managers can manage versions of business objects to: rollback changes, make seasonal changes, or track the history of a business object.
Working with category versions
The Category Manager can create, delete, list, view, and restore versions of categories.
