Product Sizing

Sizing lets you define what sizes a selected product is available in. By default, a product is available in the sizes specified by the supplier when the product is imported via catalog. However, you may choose to modify this selection, or, if you have created a custom product, you may specify the sizes in which your product will be available.

   • Clicking Manage size/color combinations will let you choose the colors available in each size.
     

     By default, catalog selections are available. Select Limit color/sizes in the drop-down box to unlock the color size chart. Un-checking a color/size combination removes its availability.

   • The Sizing table shows the sizes of the product. By default, sizes are set by the supplier when the product is imported from a catalog. This default is active when 'Use supplier sizes' is selected. The size definition comes from the free form product group when Use supplier sizes is selected.

   Advanced Options

   Beyond basic sizing changes is the ability to change the way sizing is handled for this product, including custom surcharging for sizes, custom product dimensions, and custom tax exemption status for sizes. These options are exposed via the blue config wheel.

   
   • Size Field is On toggles the size option as being on for the product. Un-tick this checkbox to hide size options for un-sized products, for example, a cup, towel, or a case for a mobile device.

     This field is only available for custom products and for catalog products that don't use SKU pricing. If the product is a catalog product using SKU pricing, a disabled field with the label, "Size Field required when using supplier prices" will be shown instead. See the following note for information on how to disable SKU pricing.

   Size surcharge

   A size surcharge is an additional fee applied to a product based on its size, typically to cover increased costs related to production, materials, or shipping.

   SKU pricing is enabled by default for catalog products. When SKU pricing is used, Size surcharge options will not be available. To access the size surcharge options when you are editing a catalog product, you will need to disable SKU pricing first. This can be done from the Pricing tab. For detailed instructions on how to disable SKU pricing and configure size surcharges, please refer to the article Product Pricing.

   • Use supplier size surcharge prices uses the supplier-set surcharge for certain sizes. For example, a 2XL may incur an additional charge of $1.
   • Create custom size surcharge prices, alternatively, select this option to unlock the surcharge fields in the size table, allowing you to you set the surcharge for any size as you see fit.
     

     The image below shows the corresponding system display for the above configuration.

     Note that size surcharging is not available if product pricing is based on SKU, as each size and color combination has its price explicitly set. The price model used is set in the Pricing tab for the selected product.

   Size dimensions

   • Don't show dimensions removes the display of the measurements used to determine the size. This may be appropriate for products that are available in different sizes but need specific dimensions to define them. A good example of this is a mug.
   • Use supplier size dimensions is the default setting that inherits the dimensions from the supplier catalog.
     
   • Create custom size dimensions unlocks the dimension fields of the size table for you to edit. By default, only the Body Length column is added. You can overwrite the name of this column. You can add more columns by clicking Add. All dimensions added can be renamed.

   Size tax exemptions

   • Use default tax exemptions will, by default, not appear as an advanced option. Enable this as a product-level option by enabling size-based tax exemption in Admin > Products > Sizing > Blue Config Wheel > tick Allow size to be tax exempt ON. Once on, the Tax Exempt column is revealed and you can see the default setting for each size. This can be overridden at the product level.
   • Create custom tax exemptions will enable the Tax Exempt checkboxes, allowing tax exemption to be turned on and off for each size. In some locations, this is useful for certain sizes, typically child and youth-related sizes.
   • Use Custom Configuration will unlock extra advanced sizing configuration options. These options are used to override default options that are being set via Admin > Products > Sizes.
     
   • Allow size variants toggles the use of size variants if they are available. Examples of size variants are short, regular, and tall, which can apply to trousers. Size variants are configured in Admin > Products > Sizes. Once a variant is defined it may be added to the size table of a product.
   • Size Affects Price will allow the size to affect the price in the form of a surcharge, and when enabled unlocks 3 further options:
   • Price Depends on Color refers to the shade of the product - white/light/dark - and when enabled surcharges may be entered for each shade. When not enabled the surcharge is per size only.
   • You may Modify price by $ or Modify price by % which sets the unit used to modify the surcharge, i.e. a flat rate or a percentage of the price.
   • Additionally, if the price modifier is by %, then you must define what the surcharge is a percentage of - the Base price or the Decoration price.

   Size Chart Image Options

   

   When configuring your product, you have three options for managing the size chart image, allowing you to tailor the presentation to best suit your needs:

   • Don’t Show Size Chart Image: If you prefer not to display a size chart for a particular product, you can select this option. This is useful for products where size is not a critical factor, or when you want to streamline the product page.
   • Use Size Chart Image from Catalog: This option allows you to utilize a pre-existing size chart image from your catalog. It’s an efficient choice if you have standardized size charts for multiple products, saving you time and ensuring consistency across similar items.
   • Upload Custom Size Chart Image: This option enables you to upload a unique size chart image specifically designed for the product. A custom size chart is ideal for products with unique dimensions or specifications, as it provides detailed information tailored to that item. The size chart image is a graphic that illustrates key dimensions, such as width and height, helping customers visualize the fit of the product.
