Interface ProductOption

All Superinterfaces:
MultiTenantCloneable<ProductOption>, Serializable
All Known Implementing Classes:
ProductOptionImpl
public interface ProductOption extends Serializable, MultiTenantCloneable<ProductOption>

A product option represents a value that is entered to specify more information about a product prior to entering into the cart.

For example, a product of type shirt might have product options of "size" and "color".

There is an inherent relationship between product options and product SKUs. A sku is meant to provide a way to override the pricing of a product for a specific set of options. Inventory can also be tracked at the SKU level.

For example, consider a shirt that is sold in 5 colors and 5 sizes. For this example, there would be 1 product. It would have 10 options (5 colors + 5 sizes). The product would have as few as 1 SKu and a many as 26 SKUs.

1 SKU would indicate that the system is not tracking inventory for the items and that all of the variations of shirt are priced the same way.

26 would indicate that there are 25 SKUs that are used to track inventory and potentially override pricing. The extra "1" sku is used to hold the default pricing.
