Magento Simple Products

Magento Simple Product is the most basic product type and the building block for the complex product types (Magento Configurable Products, Magento Bundled Products, Magento Downloadable Products, Magento Grouped Products,  Magento Virtual Products). It is suitable for all kinds of physical (shipped) products. Each simple product is associated with a unique SKU and an inventory level.

To create a simple product in Store Manager for Magento click on “Add Product” button or use the right mouse button to select “Add Product”. In the open window you can select an attribute set for a current product which will be used during the creation of Magento Configurable products and other product types. You can choose one of the existing Magento Attribute sets or you can create a new Magento attribute set.

Create Magento Simple Product

On the next step, you need to fill up the product view. To see detailed instructions on how to manage your simple product data, visit Magento Edit Product. First of all you need to select a nesessary store view for a current simple product. Before you create a multi-view store, consider what prices and other product attributes you want to use in each store view.

If you design a Magento store with one view per language, you will normally want to use the same products for all languages (e.g. in all store views). It allows you to use the same basic product information (e.g. SKU, price, inventory level etc) regardless of language, and just have the text translated into the selected languages. If you want to use a totally different price structure for different target groups, you must create unique products for each view, with unique SKUs, and have one store view per customer group you’re selling to. 

As you can see there are a few tabs in the “Edit product” window. Each of them is a separate attribute set, you’ve created before. After filling all nesessary fields up you can finish this part of creating Magento simple product by clicking at the “OK” button in the top of the form.

Store Manager allows to manage quickly Magento Simple product properties such as: Magento Related Products, Magento Up-sells, Magento Cross-sells, Magento Product Reviews, Magento Product Tags, 

Magento Customers Tagged Product through the product properties section of the Categories&Products page.
