Creating product from existing document

 

This chapter describes how to create a new product while creating new document. In Kentico CMS, you can also choose to create product from an already existing document, though.

 

All you have to do is to select a given document in the content tree and switch to the Product tab. Then check Mark document as product. By choosing Select an existing product, you can use an existing product as a template for a new product. By choosing Create a new product, you can create a new one from scratch.
