Step 1: Filter Products with Missing Digital Assets
Open the filter menu.
Click on 'Analysis'.
Select 'Digital Assets'.

Note the total number of products (e.g., 369 products).
Step 2: Verify Missing Assets for a Product 0:36
Select one of the filtered products.
Click on 'Digital Asset'.
Check for the absence of an image.

Save the image as 'primary' and confirm the upload.

Go to the company digital assets page.
Review all digital assets that have been imported into PDM.
Step 5: Bulk Upload Missing Images 2:03
If dealing with many products, use the import page for bulk uploads.
Select 'Digital Assets' and upload a zip file containing images (ensure it is no more than 4GB).
After completion, verify that the filtered products no longer appear.
Step 6: Save Filter for Future Use 2:56
Save the current filter settings for easy access later.
Name the filter (e.g., 'Missing image on server').
This allows quick retrieval of products with missing images in the future.
