Product Variations
Product variations are combinations of attributes like size or color that let your customers choose between product options using drop-down or step-by-step menus. Sometimes, the configuration of variable products depends on the marketplace category in which the product is located.
For instance, you sell T-shirts with two attributes: size and color. The size attribute has two values: Small and Medium. The color attribute has two values: Black and White. You will get four variations for these attributes:
Small / Black
Small / White
Medium / Black
Medium / White
Please note that each variation must be unique and has its own SKU, Price, and Quantity.
You can see an example of how the variations would look on the storefront in External Systems.
After linking your products from the Export Services to Sellbery products, Sellbery handles all your variations. Unfortunately, it means that you won't be able to add, modify, or delete variations outside the Sellbery products in the application.
