Variations in multiple file rows
How to combine rows into one product with sizes or colors.
A T-shirt in three sizes is usually three rows in the file and one product in the store. WooMate needs to know how to combine them.
What you need first
- A column with the variation attribute, such as size. Match it to the Variation attribute (e.g. size) field. You can point to several such columns.
- A separate SKU for each variation, if you use an SKU column.
Choose how to combine rows
For the question Does the same product come in several sizes or colors?, select Products have variations in several rows, then pick one option:
| Option | Example |
|---|---|
| Yes, a parent product column says so | Rows with the parent “TS-01” become 1 product and 3 variations |
| Yes, rows have the same name | 3 “T-shirt” rows with sizes S, M, L |
| Yes, SKUs start the same way | TS-01-S and TS-01-M become the product TS-01 |
The No, every row is a separate product option keeps each row as its own product.
The check screen shows the number of simple products and variable products. Compare it with your file.
Limits
- An error in one variation skips the whole product with all its variations.
- An empty variation attribute skips the product.
- Repeated variation SKUs skip the product.
- ID matching doesn't work with variations.
