# Product Requirements

https://docs.wisecp.com/de/product-requirement-rules

Product Requirements is the master list of custom fields you can ask clients to fill in during checkout. From here you review, filter, categorize, and remove them.

## Opening the Screen

Go to **Products > Product Management > Product Requirements**.

Direct address: `{admin}/products/requirements`

## What Is on the Screen

A toolbar sits above the list:

- **Apply to Selected**, a bulk-action dropdown with a single option, Delete.
- **Create New Product Requirement**, which opens the creation form.
- **Categories**, which opens a dialog for managing requirement categories.
- Two filters: **Product Group** and **Requirement Category**.

The table lists every requirement with its Name, Description, Product Group, Requirement Category, and Status. Name links to the edit screen, and a row menu offers Edit and Delete. Status shows as Active or Inactive. The bulk-action column, the toolbar buttons, and the row menu's Delete entry only appear if your account can manage requirements. Without that right, the screen only shows the list. A search box above the table matches name and description, and staff with export rights see a download icon that exports the filtered list as CSV, JSON, or XML.

## Fields

- **Product Group**: Narrows the list to requirements linked to one product group. Default: every group.
- **Requirement Category**: Narrows the list to one requirement category. The dropdown always lists every requirement category, regardless of the Product Group filter. Default: every category.
- **Apply to Selected**: Runs Delete on the requirements you checked. Only appears once at least one requirement is selected.

## Tasks

### Filter the List

Pick a value from Product Group and/or Requirement Category. The table updates right away; clear a dropdown back to its placeholder to drop that filter.

### Manage Requirement Categories

Click **Categories** to open the dialog. Rename an existing category by editing its text field, or click **Create New Category** and type a name for a new one. Click the trash icon next to a category to mark it for removal. A new, unsaved category drops from the dialog right away, while an existing one is struck through and removed once you save. Click **Save Changes** to apply everything at once; the button stays disabled until you have made an actual change.

### Delete Requirements

Check one or more rows, then choose Delete from Apply to Selected, or open a single row's menu and choose Delete there. Deleting more than one requirement at once asks for your account password before it proceeds.

## Things to Watch

> **Deletion Cannot Be Undone**
> 
> Removing a requirement deletes its definition for good, including every choice under it.

> **Deleting a Category Does Not Touch Its Requirements**
> 
> A requirement that still points to a removed category keeps working. The list shows it as belonging to a deleted category until you pick a new one for it.

## Required Privileges

- **Products > View**: Opens the screen for reading.
- **Products > Edit**: Opens the screen and enables creating, deleting, and category management. Either View or Edit is enough to open the list.
