Blocks in the Template can be marked with different signs. Each sign holds a specific meaning that informs about block properties. 

This manual will guide you through all signs in the Template and their meanings.

Sign of Priority

This sign informs about Priority level of the block and it is placed in the top-left corner. Three types can be discerned, each in unique colour: 

• Optional priority level - Green
• Required priority level - Orange
• Fixed priority level - Blue

You can set Adjusted Priority Level in the Block Properties tab. This setting will draw black border around priority sign in the Template.

Products where action settings are applied in store specific planograms work with Priority level set in Actions Tab. In case there is set different Priority level in product properties and in Action Tab it will be shown on the priority sign in the Template. This sign will be made up of two parts:

• Outside border– original product priority level set in product properties in Products Tab
• Inner square – priority level set in Actions Tab
