Overview

Number attributes allow you to add number-based information about an item. Use this attribute type when the value is always a number.

Prerequisites

  5. (Optional) In the Description field, enter a description for the attribute.
  6. In the Use JavaScript formula to calculate value field, select one of the following:
    • Yes: Specifies that the value for the attribute is calculated using the JavaScript formula that you provide in the Calculation formula field. An example of a JavaScript formula is (async () => await attribute('id') *10)(). When you select Yes, the Calculation formula and Allow manual overwrite fields are displayed.

However, if you enable the manual overwrite option, you can replace the system-calculated value with a custom value during product attribute setup. For more information, see the Adding an Item section.
