   Best Practices

   When to use options

   Options are like required pieces of information that you would need before you can complete an order. For this reason, options that are setup for a merchandise item must be filled out. So if you have 2 options for one merchandise item, staff will need to make a selection for each one of the 2 options. For example, if you sold hoodies, you could create 2 options for size and color. When a staff sells a hoodie, they must enter the client's choice for size and color.

7. To offer optional, extra features with the item, like monograms on apparel or a shake cup with protein powder or balloons for a party, select + New Add-on
   • enter an add-on name
   • under Price adjustment, enter the additional amount to charge for the add-on.
8. After adding Options and Add-ons, click Create
9. To add a photo of the product, on the page for the item, click + New Photo, select Choose File, choose the image file you want, and then click Upload.
10. To change the order of the option values, select Edit and click the arrows to the left of each option to move it up or down.
