The eCommerce Wizard will automatically create 6 product attributes in your product table. These attributes can be edited to suit the kinds of products you will be selling. You may change the settings of these attributes or you may add more attributes for your products to display even more information about your products.
You can edit the attributes by clicking the eCommerce link in the left windowpane and in the right windowpane, click the Show Advanced Options link and it will open more options. Click add more product attributes.
