Attribute categories allow modifiers to be added to certain products ie. Pizza Toppings, Shirt Size, Etc. They can be multi-select if you want the customer to be able to add more than one topping or option (pepperoni and olive), or they can be stacked if there are more options to choose from (shirt size, shirt color).


Navigate to Inventory<Product Attribute Categories section on the left-hand menu

  • A list will appear with all Attributes in the system


Select Add from the top-left, a new window will appear

        Name

  • Enter the name of the Attribute (Shirt Sizes – as an example)

        Active

  • Always select this box, as it makes the Attribute available

        Multi-Select

  • Only select this option in the scenarios where multiple Attributes should be selected (i.e. Pizza Toppings, as customers can purchase additional toppings)

        Is In Store

  • This will almost always be active

        Is Public

  • This should be checked anytime the Product could possibly be purchased by an online User

Click Save

Now that it is saved, we can start adding buttons

  • Click Add under the Attributes section of this window

It will pull up a new popup window, begin entering the information

        Name

  • This is the name of the specific Attribute/Button being added

        Override Price

  • This price will be added onto the Base Price of the Product the Attribute is being applied to (see examples)
  • Product A: Unit Price $0.00 – Has two Attributes
    1. Attribute 1: Override Price $1.50 = Total Price $1.50
    2. Attribute 2: Override Price $2.50 = Total Price $2.50
  • Product B: Unit Price $10.00 – Has two Attributes
    1. Attribute 1: Override Price $0.00 = Total Price $10.00
    2. Attribute 2: Override Price $5.00 = Total Price $15.00

        Percentage

  • We generally recommend using the Override Price to increase the Product by a Flat Amount, however, this should increase the Product’s Base Price by a percentage when applied
