A configurable property appears to customers as one purchasable item, but is actually a combination of variable components. A computer could be a configurable property, for example, if customers are permitted to select on the fly the amount of memory, size of the monitor, and the software that will be installed on it. The components that make up a configurable property (computer), called configurable options (monitor of this size) and described in the next section, are associated with existing SKUs. If you set a price in a configurable option, that price overrides the price supplied in the SKU.
To add a new configurable property to a configurable SKU:
In the Browse tab, Search tab, or Project tab, select a configurable SKU. To learn how to access these tabs, see Navigation Pane.
In the General tab in the Details pane, find the Configurable Properties property and click Add New.
The Details pane displays boxes that you fill in to define the configurable property.
Enter a name for the configurable property in the Name box. (Required).
Specify the configurable options:
To replace one configurable option with another, click Edit beside the option you want to replace. The Select an Item dialog opens. Locate all configurable options by clicking Find. Locate the replacement configurable option, click the radio button beside it, and click OK.
To rearrange the position of a configurable option in the list, change the number beside it. To preview the new order, click Reorder.
To remove a configurable option from the list, select the checkbox beside it, and then click Remove Selected.
To add a configurable option to the list, click Add Existing. Next to the new row that appears, click Edit. The Select an Item dialog opens. Click Find to locate all configurable options. Select the configurable option and click OK.
To create a configurable option, click Add New. The Details pane displays properties that you fill in to define the configurable option. See Creating Configuration Options for instructions. To return to the configurable property, select it from the breadcrumb list at the top of the Details pane.
Click Create.
