Overview
This article will cover dynamic product data in Cloud Retailer. This data is also known as attribute sets.
Procedure
Using our Dynamic Product Data module allows you to track custom data about your products and as much of it as you want. Here's an example a wine shop might use:
While this wine shop wants to track these additional attributes of a product, you can define your own data fields. Another example could be carat, cut, clarity, size for a jewelry store - the options are endless.
This data can be used for:
- E-commerce integration (data you can pass to your website)
- Printed on labels
- Printed on receipts
- Emailed in receipts
- Shown on back office reports
Encrypting Product Data
Occasionally, you might find it helpful to keep some data regarding your products encrypted. This could be used, for example, to track a non-advertised cost. In order to encrypt the values stored, you must make the following changes to the Attribute in question;
- Select Admin > Attributes
- Search for, and edit the attribute in question.
- Switch the Attribute type to 'Custom'
- Under the Custom Editor Setting, type PasswordWithPeek
- Under the Additional Data Setting paste; { UseEncryption: true, htmlAttributes: { style: "min-width: 200px; max-width: 400px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto" } }
- Save and exit.
