Hi:
I'm just starting an online retail clothing store and using the opportunity to organize my inventory and display. As I understand it, a variant is like a SKU - a unique Stock Keeping Unit that is tracked in inventory? - at least I think.
Are there any rules of thumb about what constitutes a variant? For example, let's say that I have a T-Shirt that comes in multiple sizes and red, green, and black. Am I better to have one product - T-Shirt that has two dropdown boxes for size and colour or better to have a T-Shirt Product that comes in 3 variants - red, green, black.
What should be the rationale for choosing one over the other?
Any help appreciated!
