Adding Item Based Attributes

What are Item Based Attributes and their importance?

Item-based attributes are item tags that are applicable to all items irrespective of the departments. Item attributes help you further refine your Item identification by attaching more tags to each item.

For example, you can attach attributes like the season, brand, gender, etc. to each item and later generate attribute specific reports to see sale/stock performance of products according to various attributes.

How to define Item Based Attributes?

All item based attributes can be customized meaning retailers can change the attribute name according to their requirements by going to the System configuration>Item tab.

Moreover, you can also add new attributes according to your requirement by going to Items>Item Based Attributes>Item Attribute.

Note:  Item Attribute numbers are mapped  with their names on the System configuration>Item tab.
