    Question Are the extensionData columns used?

    I have ML 8.0.1.2 with source.

    Are the data table columns in the ProductVariant table used for anything?

    Is it just left over from a previously removed functionality?

    Can we use these columns for storing custom data or should we create new columns as needed?

    Thanks in advance.

    ExtensionData columns are not used by default. You can use those to store any extra data you need.

    Hello ...

    Can anyone help on how I can display the extensiondata on the product detail pages?

    I'm currently using product.SimpleProduct.xml.config to display my product information.

    Thanks a lot
