How to manage my product content to get a good product matrix?

What is a product matrix?

In most cases products, which are relevant to each other have an attribute to show the relevance. This way the system recognizes which products are relevant to each other so the category pages and product detail pages can be formed.

For example:

You sell the same product in different sizes and colors.

• T-shirt X red in size M is a unique product (EAN/SKU)
• T-shirt X blue in size L is a unique product (EAN/SKU)

Together they form a matrix with the same general attribute (matrix code)

This is not your visual product title; this is a different attribute.

Steps:

1. Add a product attribute with a general code to show grouped products in your ERP or PIM
2. Decide which attributes websites visitors can choose from, like size and color.
3. Check your PIM or ERP if all products have these product attributes
