With the number of fields available on a product (or item), it would be ideal if we could create data entry segments governing, which fields a user role should fill in and give the user a guided data entry experience. This should be combined with a workflow where the product enrichment process is controlled. Lastly, it should be possible to define, which fields are mandatory without resorting to customisation.
Comments
Some kind of workflow to control new product enrichment process is requested by most of the customers.
Even better would be, if you could segment the required data by department, role or user (like suggested).
Case management can be used, but it is lacking automation and controlling the process step-by-step (in predefined order; finishing previous step will trigger next step/activity automatically).

Dear Microsoft - I think you misunderstood the suggestion.

Thank you for your feedback. We are not considering the suggestion at this time due to the following reason:
For unique referencing of a SKU in the User interaction, we suggest to use the unique product ID instead of using a segmented entry of Item + Dimensions.
In other context, for example Apparel, a table based selection would be needed, but this would require a complete redesign of the user interaction, and a generic segmented control might not be the solution.
Sincerely,
Conrad Volkmann
