Catalogue Cleanup — AI workflow for Malaysian SMEs
Catalogue Cleanup turns product catalogue into data quality issues. AI writes the first draft. You check it before it goes out.

The task
Design an AI-assisted automation around catalogue cleanup. Starting point: product catalogue. End result: data quality issues. Connected systems: E-commerce platform, marketplace, CRM, inventory, analytics. I need the trigger, field list, AI instruction, decision rules, human approval points, failure handling, stored records and a catalogue quality tracking method. Keep maintenance light.
Replace “product catalogue” and the listed systems with what you actually run.
New here? How the four prompts work together
They are one sequence, not four options. Run them in order on the same piece of work, feeding each answer into the next.
Create
Paste your real data. You get a first draft. Most people never need to go further than this.
Analyse
Paste that draft back in. It tells you what is weak, missing or wrong before a customer sees it.
Optimise
Paste the draft again with what Analyse found. You get a stronger version.
Automate
Only once the output has been good five times running. This is the one people reach for too early.
Nothing forces you through all four. A good Create draft that you edit yourself is a finished job. The longer version.

Is this for you?

- 02Copy the Create prompt and paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini.
- 03Replace “product catalogue” in the prompt with your real data, then run it.
- 04Read the output against what you already know and correct anything the model guessed at.
- 05Track catalogue quality. Only wire up the Automate prompt after five useful runs in a row.
The tools you will need
The prompts run in any chat assistant — ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini. These are what you need around them to get the input in and the output somewhere useful.
- E-commerce platform
- Any tool you already use is fine.
- marketplace
- Any tool you already use is fine.
- inventory
- inFlow Inventory

Check the rules yourself
This workflow touches rules set by someone else. Check the current requirements yourself before you act on the output.
- LHDN
- e-Invoice arrived in phases set by turnover. LHDN's published timeline puts Phase 4 at businesses up to RM5 million from 1 January 2026, and exempts those under RM1,000,000 a year. Check which phase you are in before you change how you invoice. Read from LHDN in August 2026; confirm it is still current.
- RMCD
- Cross the registration threshold and you must charge SST and file returns on time. Whether a service is taxable or exempt is decided here, and getting it wrong is expensive to unwind later.
- JPDP
- Pasting customer or staff records into an AI tool is a transfer of personal data. Consent, notice, retention and cross-border rules still apply when the tool is not yours.

Data & privacy
This workflow involves buyer names, addresses and order history. Under the PDPA your business stays responsible for it, and pasting it into an AI tool may be a disclosure to a third party. Replace names and numbers with initials or references first — the prompt works just as well on “Customer A”.
Using customer data with AI tools in Malaysia covers what to check with any provider before you paste.
For this website, it works differently.
Nothing you type here is sent to us or to an AI model. The prompts are static content, and the copy button works directly inside your browser.
