Creating Kits: A Step-by-Step Guide
Add a short description of what it’s about.
What are Kits?
Think of a kit as your curated collection — a bundled package of select items that you offer as one cohesive unit. It's like putting together a 'Best of' album where each track (or product) is a hit on its own, but when combined, creates an experience greater than the sum of its parts.

Step 1: Accessing Products

Step 2: Add the Parent SKU
To create a kit, you first need a Parent SKU. Click on the “Add a product” button and create a product to use as your Parent SKU. The Parent SKU represents the complete kit. See How to Add a Product for more details
Step 3: Creating the Kit
After setting up your Parent SKU, type its Name or SKU# into the search bar and select it from the results.
Step 4: Adding Kit Components
Scroll down to the Kit Components section on the product details page. Type the name or SKU# of the individual products to add them as components of the kit. For each component, click on the product name when it pops up to include it in the kit.
Step 5: Setting Component Quantities
If your kit includes multiple quantities of a single product, you’ll need to adjust the quantities accordingly. Click on
