How to Configure Product Variant in Odoo 13

Functional Odoo 13 Sales

Product variants are used to handle products having different attributes like color, brand, size, and so on.


For example, when you shop for products online you can see that the same product is available in different colors, sizes, brands, prices and so on.


Let’s consider an example of a company called Cello Pen which sells the pen that has the following product:


CELLO PEN

Brand: Parker, Reynolds, Camlin, Ballpoint, Gel

Colors: Blue, Black, Red


Here Cello Pen is called the Product Template and Cello Pen with brand parker and the color blue is a Variant. Brand and Colors belong to the Attributes.

Variants Creation Mode: This field decides, how the variants are to be created when the attributes are added. It is further divided as:

Instantly - Here all possible combinations of variants are created as soon as the attribute value is added to the product.

Dynamically – Here the variants are created dynamically ie only when the attributes are added to the sale order line.

Never – Here the variants are never created from the attributes.
