Product Data Management: Organizing information (Master Data) before publishing

To prevent products from going live with wrong photos or incomplete descriptions, the solution is to centralize information creation in a database like Jestor. Unlike the ERP (which only takes name and price), Jestor allows Marketing, Purchasing, and Photography to work together to create the "Perfect Product."

The "Spreadsheet Registration" problem

Registering a product involves many departments:

  • The Buyer has technical data.
  • Marketing writes persuasive copy.
  • The Photographer has high-res images. Circulating a spreadsheet via email creates errors. The result is e-commerce selling products with the wrong photo.

The Registration Flow in Jestor

Jestor acts as your e-commerce "kitchen." It's where the product is prepared.

  1. Clear Stages: Create a Registration Kanban: "New" > "Waiting for Photo" > "Waiting for Copy" > "Review" > "Ready for Site."
  2. Collaboration: The photographer uploads images directly to the product card. The copywriter writes the text in the same place.
  3. Approval: The manager validates everything. Only when the card is "Ready" does the team upload it to Shopify/VTEX.
