B2B - Adding Organisation Attributes

An organisation can have multiple custom attributes that can be set up for capturing additional information if needed. The organisation attributes are created and managed in a similar way to Product and Vendor attributes. To create or manage an organisation attribute, as a Marketplace Owner in the backend, go to Stores > Attributes > Organisation.

Here you can see the existing attributes, and create new ones.

Creating a new organisation attribute

At the top bar, you will be able to see a button labelled Add New. 

Clicking on this will load the New Attribute Creation screen.

• Default label: The label of the attribute

• Catalog Input Type for Store Owner *: The attribute type used for data entry. Example: Text Field, Date, Yes/No, Price, Text Swatch

• Values Required: Choose Yes if the attribute is mandatory

• If Multiple Select or Dropdown is chosen as "Catalog Input Type for Store Owner *" (Marketplace Owner/Vendor), the following table will appear to allow the options definition. Here you can add the options for organisations to select during the form population process.
  

• Attribute Code: Leave blank, as the system has an internal code

• Scope: Where in your store the attribute can be used. Choose Global to make the attribute available for the current store and any other store created after

• Unique value: To prevent duplicated values choose Yes. If the attribute can have duplicate values (default) choose No

• Input Validation for Store Owner *: To insert a validity test into a text field. Example: email, letters, numbers

• Sort Order: This is used to have organise where this attribute is placed on the form.

OPTIONAL - If you have more than one store using the attribute and want to define different attribute labels for each one, expand the Manage Labels sections and enter a title for each option.

Once completed, you can then save the attribute by selecting Save Attribute in the top right.

Alternatively, if you'd like to continue modifying the attribute, you can also choose Save and Continue Edit.
