Size Definition Types and Attributes
You can use the Type and Attribute Management utility to manage size definition types and attributes.
Size Definition Type Hierarchy
You can create and define the size definition type hierarchy according to your business needs. Both size definition templates and product size definitions are typed using the same size definition type hierarchy.
* 
Size categories and full size ranges do not respect typing; both exist at the size definition root type.
Size definition typing enables better management and reuse of size definition templates when creating product size definitions. Because size definitions can vary by product category, gender, brand, and market, you might want to use size definition types to organize and classify size definition templates and product size definitions.
Size Definition Types and Attributes
You can create size definition attributes to allow users to enter additional information about and further define both size definition templates and product size definitions.
Size definition attributes can be created on one of two types:
The Size Definition type, which is used for attributes that define the size definition in general.
The Size Definition to Season type, which is used for attributes that define the size definition as it applies to a particular season.
You can create additional subtypes using the Type and Attribute Management utility.
Out-of-the-box, there is one attribute group, the General Attributes group. By default, attributes on the size types appear in this box unless you create additional attribute groups and assign new attributes to these groups.
Out-of-the-box, there is one attribute, the name attribute, which is a text attribute that allows you to specify the name of the size definition template or product size definition. The name attribute is on the Size Definition type, and belongs to the General Attributes group by default.
* 
By default, the system uses a combination of property settings and a server-side plug-in to override this attribute and automatically derive the names of size definition templates and product size definitions.
