Product Options vs. Product Addons

Product Options

Product Options are used when you have a set of products you wish to group together to display for customers (e.g. different sizes for the one product.

To first set this up, a few requirements must be met.

• One of the products is defined as the 'parent product' (generally the smallest or largest) OR a dummy parent product is created in your accounting system
• The parent product's Item Name, Description and Brand are made generic to cover each of the child products
• An accounting system field is created to contain the size data displayed against the parent product (can either be in a drop down menu or displayed separately)
• A Catalogue Association File is filled out, linking the Parent Product to the Child Products
  
  • This must be correctly filled in with Excel using this layout and saved as a Tab Delimited text file
  • An example can be found below

Product Addons

Product Addons are used if you want to display a Related Products section on your product pages to cross promote related items.

To set this up a Catalogue Association File is filled out:

• In this scenario, the product page you want the related products to appear on is the Parent Product and the products appearing in the related products section are the Child Products
  • This must be correctly filled in with Excel using this layout and saved as a Tab Delimited text file
  • An example can be found below
