One of the four Comestri Class types. A Grouped Class defines a Class that allows you to create grouped products.
Comestri supports the management of standalone products and products with variations.
Standalone products are those that have no further options for customers to select from. Examples of this kind of product could include a shoehorn, a bowtie or cufflinks.
Products with variations are products that are alike in some ways, but also have differences. For example, a ladies’ shirt of one style could come in different colours and sizes. In Comestri, a product can be divided into a number of Class levels that represent the variations in the product. For example, the ladies’ shirt could be divided into three Class levels: “Style”, “Colourway” and “SKU” (the SKU Class includes the various product sizes).
The Comestri PIM stores and recognises each Class level of a product as a separate product. These variant products are then linked together in the PIM in a Class hierarchy that utilises Parent-Child relationships. These relationships can be viewed under the Associated Products tab for each product in the PIM.
Product Classes allow you to store pieces of product information at different levels, so that the overall Class Structure reflects variations in your product hierarchy. Common product variations include colour and size. Product Classes can be used to:

Attributes can be used to:
You can assign a data type to Attributes to support any kind of product data – String, Text, HTML, Integer, Single Select, Multi Select, List, Boolean, and Date. You can then assign validation rules based on your data type.
Attribute Groups let you logically group related Attributes together. So, instead of separately assigning Attributes to a product, you can assign multiple Attributes using a single Attribute Group. For example, individual attributes like Meta Information, Title, Keywords and Description could be grouped under an SEO Attribute Group.
You can re-use Attribute Groups for similar products, and also create Attribute Groups that are unique to particular types of products.
Attribute Groups can be used to:
One of the four Comestri Class types. A Product Kit Class defines a Class that allows you to create products that contain a number of SKUs that are sold as one product.
