What is a sub-product?
Combined variations of a product are called sub-products, e.g. if the product is a T-shirt, the medium red T-shirt is a sub-product and the large green T-shirt is another sub-product.
Each sub-product can have their own:
- Code/SKU
- Stock (& settings)
- Price
- Tax type
- Shipping measurements
- Availability
- Status
- Images
Is anything inherited from the product?
Yes. If any of the following information is left blank, it's inherited from the product:
- Shipping measurements
- Price
- Tax type
