The Power-Map utility allows large-scale mapping of product to categories without having to edit product category assignments one by one. 
The Power-Map feature is a time-saver when mapping products to a newly created category of for store re-organization.

By default, the screen displays a list of products not currently mapped to any category. Un-mapped products are not displayed directly on the web site. While this might be by design in the case of products reserved for future use or mapped to other products in a cross-selling association, it is useful to obtain a list of those products from time to time in order to make sure all products are correctly mapped.

Select the product category to map the products to. The system automatically refreshes the screen and display the list of product currently mapped to this category.
