Variations allow you to add new options and selections to your basic inventory that your customers can select.  Using one of your products as the base, you can add attributes such as size and color.  You can also use a Variation Template to apply a common set of options across multiple products and save time.

Creating Variations

Once the product that will be the basis for your variations has been created (i.e. you have filled out the required fields in the General tab and have saved the product), click on the Variations tab.

To Create a Variation Group:

• Enter the name of your New Group in the Add a New Group field and click the Create Group Button.  This opens the Group Options section.
  

• Enter the options for your group in the Add a New Group Option field and click the Create Option.  Your options are listed in the Group.  You can change the sort order, edit the option name or delete the option by clicking on the blue arrows, Edit button, or Delete button, respectively.

Managing Your Variation Inventory

Once the groups and options have been created they will appear under the Manage your Variation Inventory expandable menu.  You can enter prices and stock quantity and enable or disable variations from here.  Click the Edit button to edit the variation option details.

Edit Variation

In the Edit Variation page, you can specify the details of your variation product.   Each Variation may have its own image which will display when a storefront customer selects that variation on the product detail page.  Enter the path for the image to be displayed for the Thumbnail and Display images.
