How do I Add and Remove a Pivot Attribute?
Last updated over 4 years ago
Pivot Attributes allow you to set certain attributes that can be shared in a product group which includes a “master” and its “variants”. If you would like to create a product group see How to Create a Product Group. To modify or create pivot attributes follow the instructions below:
- Find a SKU on the Zentail catalog page that will be included in this product group => Click on the SKU in the Catalog table.
- The SKU you choose will become the "Master" (aka "parent") SKU for the product group.
- All other SKUs will inherit shared attributes (Size, Pricing, Brand Shipping Dimensions etc.) from this SKU, so make sure you start with the SKU in Zentail that has the highest quality of data.
- Click on the 3-vertical-dot icon at the top of the left sidebar => Select "Create Product Group" from the dropdown menu. Note if this is already a master SKU it will say “Edit Product Group”.
- In the "Pivot Attributes" section click "Select an Attribute" => Select the attributes upon which your group will vary.
- The most common pivot attributes are Size and Color.
- Contact us if you need us to add different pivot attributes based on your catalog.
- After you have created your pivot attributes you can select which common attributes you want to share between the variants by clicking the appropriate checkbox.
