Important Update

Started with the Zeus release, We've updated the name of our "Search Information Manager (SIM)" feature to "Measurement Conversion" to better reflect its capabilities.

Note

This article describes Measurement Conversion feature for the new Hawksearch v4.0. For Hawksearch v2.0L - v4.0L, please contact your Account Manager.

Introduction

Consider a situation where all or most of your products have dimensions in their names or in other query-able fields. However, all are in imperial units. Since your website is available in multiple regions of the world where the metric system is used instead, you may need to convert all the units from one system into another and store both. This just increases the size. Adding to this, what if the user searches for 10mm instead of 1 cm? In this case, although both are in the same metric unit, the user may still end up not getting what they searched for.

Hawksearch’s Measurement Conversion is the feature which targets exactly this problem of unit and numeric conversion.

Dashboard Location

If you have chosen to have Measurement Conversion installed for your engine, the feature will be available under the workbench.

• Login to your dashboard.
• From the top navigation menu, click on Workbench.
• On the left navigation, the Measurement Conversion module will be visible.
