Attributes VS Fields

[Former Member]

Dear MDM gurus,

One question on Category-attributes vs Fields....

say I have a category like automobiles ---> below that

---> sedans

---> SUV etc at the sidling level.

Now if sedan has 4 seats and SUV has 7 seats.

How do we capture the 3 extra seats of SUV.

Should it be attributes ? If so how can I capture the details behuind each of the 3 extra seats like "mad of ..e.g. leather,cloth,wool",dimensions,features( child lock available).

Appreciate your inputs.

Thanks.

Hello Jack:

Sure, attributes are special for specific characteristics. If your particular case I would recommend actually using a qualified table multivalued, where you can store the registers of type "Seat" and then add them to the main table (automobiles).

I hope that helps
