Specifications

To effectively manage your product specifications, start by navigating to the 'Catalog' tab, 'Specifications'. This is where you can access a list of your existing specifications.

• Step 1: To add a new specification, click on the 'Add New' button. This action opens up a form to create a new specification.
• Step 2: Enter a name for your new specification. This could be anything relevant to your products, such as 'Color,' 'Size,' or 'Material.'
  Optionally, you can add a detailed description. This helps provide additional context or instructions about the specification.

• Step 3: Select the 'Attribute Type' for your specification. Choose from options like a single option, multi-option, custom text, or a rich text editor. If you opt for 'Custom Text,' you can specify whether it's a 'String,' 'Decimal,' or 'Date.'

Using 'Option' or 'Multi-Option' for color specifications is recommended because it prevents mistakes and makes things easier:
- Prevents Mistakes: By giving a list of colors to choose from, you avoid errors like misspellings. This keeps your product data consistent and reliable.
- Makes Things Easier: It's quicker and simpler to pick a color from a list than to type it out each time. This saves time and effort, especially when you have many products to manage.

• Step 1: In your specification, under the tab 'Options', click on 'Add a New Option.' For instance, if your specification is 'Color,' you might add options like 'Green,' 'Blue,' or 'Red.'

• Step 2: Once you've added an option, such as 'Green,' save it to include it in your specification options.
