Manage Product Options in ECM

In this guide, you'll learn how to create and manage product options.

A product option is a customizable attribute that provides variations or choices for customers. Common examples include size, color, material, and style.

In the ECM, you can create and manage product options, then associate them with products when creating or editing a product. This allows you to define variations that customers can choose from.

To view all product options, go to the Product → Options page. You can see a list of global options by default. To view all options, clear the "Type is Global" filter.
