Product Attributes

It is possible to add product attributes from the 'Item' table in Microsoft Dynamics NAV and 'Item details' form in Microsoft Dynamics AX (depending on your provider) to be displayed on 'Product List' and 'Product Details' pages on the webshop. A separate Sana text should be created for each additional product attribute in order to make it visible on the webshop.

To add an additional product attribute:

Step 1: Go to 'Content -> Sana texts' and create a new Sana text for the additional product attribute. This Sana text will be displayed as a label for the corresponding field on the 'Product details' page.

Step 2: Go to 'Settings -> Catalog', scroll down to the bottom of the page and locate the 'Product attributes' table:

The 'Product Attributes' Table

This table allows you to manage product attributes which are displayed on 'Product List' and 'Product Details' pages on the webshop.
Below you can find the detailed description of each field of the 'Product attributes' table:

Field	Description
Field name	This drop-down list consists of all fields that can be selected for display. The list of fields is taken from the 'Item' table in NAV and 'Item details' form in AX (depending on your provider). All types of active fields are available for selection. The fields which are displayed on the webshop by default (for example, 'Item Code', 'Description') are not available in the drop-down list.
Sorting	This field specifies the order in which an attribute is displayed. The first level of order is '0'.
Sana text group code	This field allows a user to specify a Sana text that will be displayed as the label for selected item attribute.
Lookup table name	If a field from the 'Item' table in NAV is related to another table and this field is selected in the 'Field name' drop-down, the name of the lookup table will be shown in this column. Note: If a related table has the composite primary key this relation will be ignored.
Lookup field name	This drop-down list consists of all available fields from the lookup table which can be selected for display. If no field from the lookup table is selected a value of the field specified in the 'Field name' column will be shown by default.
Visibility	This field allows a user to select the visibility of an attribute on the 'Product list' page, 'Product details' page or on both pages. It is also possible to make the attribute invisible.

Step 3: Fill in all required fields and click 'Refresh site cache'.

Additional product attributes are displayed on the 'Product List' page under the name of each product and 'Product Details' page in the 'Specifications' tab at the bottom of the page. If the quantity of additional product attributes is more than one they are divided by the '|' symbol:
