Step 4 - Select Records for Normalization

After selecting products/models and manufacturers, and having been presented with all of the matching records from the Master Catalog, continue by checking each record that you wish to normalize into one spelling by clicking the Select box next to the record.

Each time you click a record's Select box, the information from that record will be copied to the four update fields.  The update fields allow you to change spelling of any of the four normalized fields (in case none of the current records reflect the proper spelling).

To save time, select the correct record last - its spelling will be transferred to the update fields and all records will be updated to match when you click the Normalize button.

Note that if you choose only one record to normalize, the only action that will occur is the update of any spelling changes or corrections you made in the four update fields.  Since you selected only one record, there is nothing to normalize, so only spelling will be updated.  As normal, spelling will be updated in the Master Products table as well as in the assets table (for all assets related to the current master product).
