I'm working on some data imports to improve our SEO on our SuiteCommerce Advanced webstore and I'm noticing that when I add keywords or even insert the meta into the "Search Keywords" field on the item record that it doesn't show in the browser. It works if I add via SMT but I'd like to just manage this content from the item record on this native field if possible. Not sure why it doesn't work. Thoughts?

If you want to do it from the item record then you need to add it on the Meta tag HTML field, not the “search keywords” fields.
