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 pre-define 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.
