hi there,
if you give attributes to a product, new variants are automatically generates.
but products may have more "soft attributes".
users may select "soft attributes" in product filter.
"soft attributes" for a product may not automatically generates new variants.


example 1:

i need to give searchable attributes to products (which may not result in variants) e.g.

attribute "market segment"
- for kids
- for Adults
- for elder people.


products with these attributes in shop:

1. scarf:  ( for kids, - for Adults, - for elder people )

2. big flat screen ( - for Adults, - for elder people )

3. dentures teeth ( - for elder people )

example 2:

attribute "location of use"

- home

- work

- outdoor

product

- telescope (home, outdoor)

- notebook ( home, work, outdoor)

- tent (outdoor)

- directors desk (work)

-----

here is an outdated video for version 8 that shows what i need, but this does not work anymore with V11:

thanks for any help or idea.

Probably you have to activate the developer mode to see this option (I'm not online now to check).

100% right!

to be able to check or uncheck "create variants" you need to be in developer mode.

this solved my problem.

thanks a lot

Since Odoo 10.0 you are able to define if an attribute should create variants or not. Check the attribute definition:

Hi Andy,


It is there in odoo v11 too. I have checked on runbot. But for the firstly you need to have that setting in your environment, from this:



You just need to make it TRUE (Attributes and Variants) and then variants will be visible at your product, I have created variants same as your example and it is well created.



And now go to variants and search for variants: you will see them all.




I hope this answer will help you.

Please upvote and mark True if this really helps you. Thanks,


Regards,

Chandni.
