Posted On // Leave a Comment
You can create and apply rules directly to Options Sets without editing product(s). This is a great way to apply the same Option Sets to multiple products. This article will cover apply rules directly to Option Sets, as well as well as applying an existing Option Set to a product.

Applying Rules Directly to the Option Set

1.) Click on Products and then Product Options.
