Product with Parent Code

Note:

The variant code can only be generated automatically if you fill in the parent code on the product. If you notice there is a slash as a separator between the parent code and the variant code, you can set the separator mark according to your preference or you can even leave it blank. Then you can also set the number of characters or substring digits that you want to use as a variant code, in the example above the number of characters taken from the variant name is 3. For example, in the black color variant, 3 letters are taken, namely 'blah' as the variant code.
