Exception Management

Each level in the product structure can have different attributes. The number of child style items available is based on the number of attributes and levels for a product. The attributes that are set at the style item root level 0 of the style item hierarchy are inherited by the lower levels or child style items. However, you can define an exception for the inheritance of an attribute. For example, if you specify a price for a shirt at style item root level 0, then this price is inherited by the child style items. If you change the price for the shirt with a double extra large (XXL) size, then you make the change and any further changes to price at a higher level will not be inherited by the XXL size shirt.
