Product formats represent the sellable components of products. You can set a price and item availability.
Product > Create Product Format
Format type
For some format types you will be asked to select an additional type.
e.g. for vinyl select between 1xLP and 12".
The short description allows additional differentiation between formats and appears on the store during checkout and in customer order summaries.
The extended description is useful for multi-line text describing the content of the product.
If you don't see the exact format type you would to present on your store, please contact us and we can create new types for you. We limit the format options so we can provide simplified filtering across websites, and accurate shipping calculations and metrics across the whole platform.
Pricing
Products can be priced in pound sterling, dollar and euro.
£ | Pound sterling | UK |
€ | Euro | Eurozone |
$ | US dollar | Rest of the world |
Purchase limit per order
It is possible to restrict each customer to a set number of units per purchase. This is useful if items are limited.
A default value can be set on the store level, which applies to all products unless set.
Catalogue number
This is your internal identifier for the product.
SKU code
The SKU code identifies which item in your warehouse this product relates to.
Normally you will not need to enter this on product creation as there it will be created automatically when you first notify the warehouse that this stock is incoming by creating a ship notice.
