Defining Varieties
You will use three settings to configure the Varieties feature. These are all in the Stock module. Using the Modules menu, ensure you are in the Stock module, and follow these steps:
- Use the Item Variety Groups setting to define the types of Variety that you sell. In the example, we need three Item Variety Groups for the shirt (Colour, Size and Style) and three for the trousers (Fit, Leg Length and Waist Size):
- In the Item Varieties setting, define all the possible Varieties that you sell. For example, Small, Medium and Large will all be Item Varieties belonging to the "Size" Variety Group, and Short-sleeved and Long-sleeved will be Item Varieties belonging to the "Style" Variety Group:
- You cannot use Varieties with Items that you have already used at least once in a sales or stock transaction. Doing so will cause your stock records to become corrupted. So, working in the Item register, you should now enter in the normal way the Items that you will be using with Varieties.

- Use the Variety Masks setting to specify the Varieties that can be used with each Item.
