[support] drupalcommerce

[Cindy Dykstra, WebMaker Inc.]

I just recently set up a Drupal Commerce Kickstart site. You have to 
first add a Product Display Type, let's call it Computers. Then you have 
to add all the fields you may ever need to display for any computer that 
you sell: memory, processor, width, height, brand etc. Note that you may 
not use all these fields on every computer you sell, but you need them 
in the Product Display to make them available to the Products as you 
enter them.

Then you create products, each with it's own SKU, title, price and info 
in any of the fields you create for that Product Display in the first 
step. Products are not pages, but only entities that the assigned 
Product Display pulls the info from to make a page in your online shop

The Product Display is the page your customers see on the front end, the 
Products are just entities containing specific product info.

Then you go back to each Product Display and add the SKU's of the 
applicable products.

Hope this helps.
