SCENARIO:

The school is offering an opportunity to purchase school clothing.

QUESTION:

Should I create one item/fee, listing all the styles and colors for sale, or multiple items/fees, one for each style and color?

BEST PRACTICE:

It is always best to create a separate item for each style and color.

Clothing item is offered in additional styles and/or colors, copy the first item, or use the template for the next style and/or color.

The Knowledge Base offers numerous item creation articles, including Best Practices.
