Overview of Item Variants

An Item Variant is a specific version of a base item. You can manage different configurations of an item with slight differences in characteristics, such as size, color, or packaging.

When you create an item, the Style Item option is available for item classes that have the variant attribute group set up. Enabling this option indicates the item is a style item.

When the item has the Style Item option enabled, a new tab called Variants is available for style items. On this tab, you can create and manage the variants for the style item. You can also perform the following:

• Select Views to see additional attributes for product variants. Views defined in the Product Management work area and Product Search task flow are available for selection.
• Filter the product variants using the search and the suggested filters. Variant attribute suggested filters are available along with the suggested filters defined for the views.
• Freeze and unfreeze columns on the variant grid.
• Export the displayed results from the grid to an Excel file and save it to your system.
