Updated over 4 months ago

We’re thrilled to see you exploring and becoming familiar with Ivonto! In this guide, we’ll walk you through setting up product variants in your store step-by-step.


What Are Product Variants?

Product variants represent the different options or combinations available for a single product. For example, a t-shirt might come in different colors (blue, black, red) and sizes (small, medium, large). Each unique combination—such as blue + small or black + large—is a product variant.

By defining variants, you can showcase all the options your product offers to your customers.


Defining Product Attributes and Values

To set up product variants, you’ll need to define attributes and their values:

  • Attributes: These are the characteristics of your product (e.g., color, size, type).

  • Values: These are the specific options for each attribute (e.g., for color: blue, black, red; for size: small, medium, large).

For instance:

  • Attribute 1: Color

    • Values: Blue, Black, Purple

  • Attribute 2: Size

    • Values: Small, Medium, Large

Combining these will create nine product variants, such as:

  • Blue + Small

  • Black + Medium

  • Purple + Large


How to Create a Product Variation

Follow these steps to set up product variants:

  1. Go to the Product Section
    Navigate to your product list in Ivonto’s dashboard.

  2. Enable Variants
    Select the product you want to update and tick the "Enable Variations" checkbox.

  3. Define Attributes
    After enabling variations, a new section will appear where you can add attributes.

    • Click Add Attribute.

    • Enter the attribute name (e.g., Color).

    • Add values for the attribute (e.g., Blue, Black, Green).

  4. Save Variants
    Once you define all attributes and their values, Ivonto will automatically generate all possible combinations.

Managing Product Variants

After creating the variants, you can customize each one individually. To do this:

  1. Edit Variants

    • Navigate to the Variants section of the product.

    • Click the Edit Icon next to the variant you want to update.

  2. Update Details
    For each variant, you can define specific details such as:

    • Price: The base price of the product.

    • Sale Price: If the sale price is lower than the base price, a discount percentage will be shown to customers.

    • Inventory Quantity: The stock available for that variant.

    • SKU: A unique identifier for the variant.

    • Barcode: A unique barcode number for tracking.

    • Continue Selling When Out of Stock: Enable this option if you want to allow orders even when stock runs out.

    • Weight: Define the weight of the specific variant for shipping calculations.
