In your DistributorCentral account, you have "Manager" tools to use when making changes to a large number of products at one time. These will let you choose multiple products, categories, options, or choices to assign to another product element. For example, you can select a Category and pull in 20 products that fit that category all at one time by using the "Category Manager" tool.
