Change to Navigation for "Sub-Types" and "Brands"

We've made changes to permanently move
Sub-Types
and
Brands
resources in our UI as well as standardizing
Items
and
Product Catalog
pages as part of your:
Admin -> Facility Data
.
WHAT IS CHANGING?
Screenshot 2026-01-22 at 8
We have added HTTP 301 Permanent Redirects, so your bookmarks to the old resources should continue to operate without issue
(please create a support case if your bookmarks are failing and share the bookmark URL you have saved, and also share the URI you land upon when you activate the bookmark in your browser).
WHY WE MADE THESE CHANGES
Prior to the release of Unified Items back in early October, you used to access your
“Sub-Types”
and
“Brands”
by viewing:
Admin → Facility Data → Items
And these two resources were present as links on the
Items Table
.as page-view tabs.
Customers were reporting problems not being able to locate Sub-Types and/or Brands post-Unified Items release. We moved these page-view tabs into:
Admin → Facility Data → Products
This did not improve your customer experience, because you did not know where to find the
Sub-Type Table
and
Brand Table
.
  • Sub-Type Table
    and
    Brand Table
    assets were not accessible using the Canix main navigation.
  • Additionally, Product Catalog had a mis-match with the Page Heading name "Products".
  • Lastly,
    Sub-Types
    ,
    Brands
    , and
    Product Catalog
    URIs were confusing because they still listed these resources as child-nodes to the
    Items
    directory.
We hope these changes make sense and improve your experience using Canix to manage your Facility Data and related resources.
