Store Wide Item Options

Overview

Often merchants have an option (such as Color) that applies to a large set of their inventory. To keep from having to define the same option repeatedly for each item, UltraCart supports the concept of store wide item options. Merchants define the option and associate it with multiple items. 

To create a new storewide option, navigate to:

Configuration

After clicking on Store Wide Item Options, you will be taken to the Store Wide Item Options screen. 

To create your first Store Wide Item Option, click on the "New Option" button. You'll then be taken to the Option Editor screen, this is the same screen you will see if you are setting up individual item options.

The settings for storewide options are identical to item specific options. For instructions on how to complete this screen, see Item Options page. 
Once you've created a Store Wide Item Option, click on the "Save" button. You will be returned to the Store Wide Item Options screen where you newly created option(s) will appear. 

Add to Multiple Items

After creating a storewide item option it can then be associated with multiple items. Clicking the "add to multiple items" button will bring up a list of all the store items the merchant has configured. 

Click the check boxes to the left of the Item ID desired. A checkbox is provided at the top of the list to "select all".  Click the "apply" button when finished selecting your items to associate the option with each of the items. You will be returned to the previous screen.
