A Configurable Product is displayed as a single Product with drop-down lists of options (Child Products) for each variation. Each option is a separate Simple Product.

We recommend you to choose the Configurable Product type if you want to list your product as a Variational one. Compared with others, this Magento product type is more suitable for managing variations on Amazon.

Let’s take a look at the example of such a Product and how its variations are displayed: 

  • In Magento Inventory settings

  • In the list of Magento Products, where ID 2002 is a Parent Product, ID 1997 and ID 1996 are Child Products

  • In the M2E Pro Listing

  • on Amazon
