Adding SKUs

Note: This section is NOT for those products of Default product type.

 

Depending on the Product Type selected, your Product may have attributes associated with it.

 

For example, shoes have size, color and width attributes. For any given style of shoe, say Loafer, there will be a range of variants with different size, color and width combinations. Each unique combination must be added to the storefront as a separate SKU.

 

Products that use the "default" Product Type, a music CD for example, do not have attributes. These products still need one SKU associated with the Product. This SKU is automatically created for you when you created the Product so there is no reason to add it here.

 

After adding a product, to add its variants:

 

1.Login to the storefront administration website. The Storefront Dashboard page is displayed.

 

2.On the left Navigation pane, click Products under Catalog. The Products page is displayed.
