Selecting products by cluster

Cluster selection is a shortcut for selecting all same level product categories in one click. The available clusters depend on the selected nomenclature. In the case of HS nomenclature for example, 3 levels of categories are available: 2-digit, 4-digit and 6-digit levels. WITS will then return information for each and every category belonging to the selected cluster(s).

To select product by cluster:

  1. Select the desired classification in the Nomenclature list;
  2. Select Clusters in Select product by;
  3. Check the cluster you want to include in your selection. In the case of the HS nomenclature, Chapter corresponds to all 2-digit categories, Heading to all 4-digit categories and Sub-Heading to all 6-digit categories.
  4. Repeat until your selection is completed.

The selected cluster is displayed in the Products folder:
