With Quable, your data model is not fixed: you can add, delete and modify fields at any time. We understand that a product repository is always evolving.
Let's look at how to customize your Quable PIM!
Advice n°1: Before starting, verify (in your Profile) if your interface language. Interface language drives attributes names.
In the Administration menu, click on Objects and attributes.

Complete the New attribute form on the right:
Enter the attribute's Name.
Clicking in the Code cell generates it automatically or you can enter a code which suits you.
The Description is optional. It provides information about the attribute, especially to administrators.
The Help text is also optional. It will be displayed on documents to users when the cursors hovers over the question mark:
Select the attribute's Type.
Select one or more attribute sets containing this attribute. By default if no attribute set is selected, the attribute is visible for all attribute sets.
Advice n°2: For list of values, the data language, (located at the top right of the screen) is used. Verify it's convenient before saving.
Advice n°3: Once the attribute is saved, you won't be able to modify its type. Consult the related documentation before creating the attribute.
Then select what's relevant:

Advice n°4: To translate these attributes, you'll just have to change the interface language in your profile and complete the translations and save.
Advice n°5: A data model modification is never insignificant. We kindly advise you to communicate the change to people or systems which could be impacted.
