Item Attributes and Variants

Item Attributes & Variants allows you to create multiple item variations under an Item Group based on different attributes and their values.

Instead of creating each item individually, you can define the attributes and values once, and the system automatically generates the available combinations as items.

This feature is useful when you need to create a large number of related items efficiently while keeping them organized under the same Item Group.

1. Activate Item Attributes & Variants

Go to:

Settings → Preference → Item

Enable:

Active Attributes and Variants in Item Group

Then click Save.

Once activated, the Attributes & Variants section will be available when creating a new Item Group.

2. Go to Item Group

After activating Active Attributes and Variants in Item Group, go to:

Item → Item Group

Click Add Item Group to create a new Item Group.

After activation, the Item Attributes & Variants section will appear below the Item Group information.

You can use this section to define attributes and their values, then generate multiple item variants from the combinations.

Note: The Item Attributes & Variants section is available when creating a new Item Group after the feature has been activated. It does not appear when editing an existing Item Group created before the feature was activated.

3. Add Attributes

In Attributes & Variants, select the attributes that define your item variations.

For example:

Attribute 1: Storage

Attribute 2: RAM

Click Add More Attribute if you need additional attributes.

4. Add Variant Values

Enter each value separately and press Enter after each value.

For example

Under Storage:

256 GB → Enter

512 GB → Enter

1 TB → Enter

Under RAM:

8 GB → Enter

16 GB → Enter

32 GB → Enter

Each value will be added separately and used to generate the item combinations.

5. Generate Item Variants

Once you have entered the attribute values, the system automatically generates the combinations.

For example:

3 Storage options × 3 RAM options = 9 items

The system generates:

1. Laptop - 256 GB / 8 GB
2. Laptop - 256 GB / 16 GB
3. Laptop - 256 GB / 32 GB
4. Laptop - 512 GB / 8 GB
5. Laptop - 512 GB / 16 GB
6. Laptop - 512 GB / 32 GB
7. Laptop - 1 TB / 8 GB
8. Laptop - 1 TB / 16 GB
9. Laptop - 1 TB / 32 GB

This allows you to create many related items without creating each item manually.

6. Generate Item Codes

After the variants are generated, you can use Generate Item Code to create item codes automatically.

Click Generate Item Code above the Item Code column.

A configuration window will appear.

Configure the Item Code

For each part of the item code, select an Attribute Name, such as:

1. Item Group name
2. Attribute values
3. Other available attributes

You can configure:

Show Text

Select which part of the text to display and specify the number of characters.

Letter Case

Choose the letter format, such as Upper Case.

Separator

Choose how each part of the item code is separated.

Click Add More Config to add additional parts to the item code.

Run Number

Enable Run Number if you want to add a sequential number to the generated item codes.

Enter the Start Number to define the beginning of the sequence.

Item Code Preview

The system displays an Item Code Preview so you can check the format before generating the codes.

Review the preview, then click Generate to create the item codes.

Click Close if you do not want to generate the codes.

7. Configure Variant Details

After generating the variants, you can configure the details for each item, including:

1. Item Code
2. Barcode
3. Cost
4. Base Price
5. Reorder Qty
6. Memo

You can also use Copy From Memo to copy the Item Group memo to the generated variants.

8. Save the Item Group

After reviewing the generated variants and completing the required information, click Save.

The system will create the generated items under the Item Group.
