Item Attributes and Variations

A
Written by Aaron

Item Attributes and Variations help you track product qualities such as color, size, or material. Follow the steps below to create attributes and add variations:

  1. Create an Attribute.
    An attribute acts as a label for a type of product feature.
    ​


    For example, Size is an attribute.

  2. Add Variations.
    Variations represent the specific options within an attribute.
    ​

    For Size, variations could include Small, Medium, and Large.
    ​


Types of Attributes

Using attributes and variations allows you to fine-tune inventory management, apply customized pricing, and generate more accurate reports.


You can create two types of attributes by choosing the options below:

  • Global Attributes.
    Reusable across multiple items. For example, Shirt Size can apply to many different shirt products.

  • Custom Attributes.
    Specific to a single item. For example, a limited-edition item may have unique attributes that aren’t used elsewhere.
