Define data type, value range and default value
The default data type is String. In addition, Double and Integer are available as data types. If you want to predefine attribute values, provide the possible values in the field Value Range. Each possible value must be declared explicitly, with multiple values separated by a | (pipe symbol). These values will be presented to the product manager in a drop-down list. Finally, a default value can be defined which is applied if no other selection has been made.
