This section explains how to manage the **Options** that appear on your product pages from within NCompass, specifically for associating services with your categories.

#### 1. Prerequisites: Setting Up Service Products

Before you can associate services with categories, ensure the following requirements are met:

1. ##### Product Exists in NCompass
    
    
    - The service must be set up as a **Non Controlled item** in NCompass.
    - These are typically found under the **"Service Products"** department in your system.
2. ##### Web Price Set
    
    
    - A web price must be entered in the Retail Pricing window within NCompass.
3. ##### Product Title Configured
    
    
    - In **Product Info**, under the **Web / Multi-channel Settings** section, ensure the **Product Title** is set.

⚠ **Important:** If any of these requirements are not met, the service options will not appear correctly on your product pages.

#### 2. Associating Services to Categories

Once the service products meet the requirements above, you can associate them with your categories.

##### How category associations work:

- Associations operate on a **hierarchical basis**.
- If you assign a service at a **department level**, it will cascade down to all products in subcategories.
- These must be set as "Web: Checkout Options" in **Part 2.**

##### Examples**:**

- Assigning a **"Remove/Recycle"** charge to the **Laundry** category will automatically apply it to all subcategories such as **Washing Machines**, **Washer Dryers**, and **Tumble Dryers**.
- For services that differ between product types (e.g., installation fees for **Freestanding** vs. **Integrated** appliances), set them at the **lowest relevant category level** to ensure they only apply to the correct products.

#### 3. Demonstrations

- ##### **Part 1:** Setting up a Service Product in NCompass.
    
    
    - This covers locating an existing service item
    - checking the financial information on the product (Existing web pricing)
    - locating the web information and setting the "**Product Title**" accordingly

- ##### **Part 2:** Associating that service product (charge) to the correct category or subcategory.
    
    
    - This Shows you how to associate the services to your departments
    - ensuring you you've applied all checks in Part 1 for your service, add the associated charge as a "Web: Checkout Option".
