# Product Selections

Learn how to manage Product Selections to create tailored Product catalogs for multiple sales channels.

Product Selections allow you to easily manage your Product catalogs across different sales channels, such as brand sites, regional shops, or brick-and-mortar stores.
We recommend managing Product Selections after you [create Products and their Variants](/merchant-center/product-list.md#create-a-product).
Then, to make Products within a Product Selection available through a specific sales channel, assign that Product Selection to the relevant Stores.

Currently, maximum 100 Product Selections can be assigned to one Store.

The Product Selection model is expandable via the [Custom Fields API](/api/projects/custom-fields.md), if the default fields do not suit your business needs.

## Add a Product Selection

1. Go to **Products > Add Product Selection**.

2. Enter the basic information for the Product Selection.

   - For **Product Selection name**, enter the localized names for the Product Selection.
   - Optional: For **Product Selection key**, enter a unique identifier value for the Product Selection.
   - For **Product Selection Type**, choose how selected Products or their Variants will be shown in linked Stores.

3. Optional: If present, select a Custom Field for the Product Selection and enter a value for it.

4. Click **Save**.

You can now add Products and Product Variants to the newly created Product Selection and assign it to your Stores.

## Assign Products to Product Selections

     - **All variants with SKU values except**: adds all SKUs except the selected SKUs to the Product Selection; new SKUs (added to the Product) will be added to the Product Selection automatically.

## Assign a Product Selection to a Store

Updating a Store configuration may invalidate existing carts on your storefront.

Each Store can contain up to 100 Product Selections.
You can assign up to 100 Product Selections to each Store. For more information about configuring a Store, see [Stores](/merchant-center/project-settings.md#add-a-store).

A Product Selection can be assigned to multiple Stores. A Store's assortment depends on assigned Product Selections and if they are active or inactive for the Store; if a Product Selection is not assigned to a Store, all your Products will be available in the Store.

- If Product Selections of type **Inclusion** are assigned to a Store and if all are inactive, the Store's assortment will be empty. If at least one of the assigned Product Selection is active, the Store's assortment will include Products from the active Product Selection.
- If Product Selections of type **Exclusion** are assigned to a Store and all are inactive, the Store's assortment will include all Products. If at least one of the assigned Product Selection is active, the Store's assortment will not include Products from the active Product Selection.
- If Product Selections of type **Inclusion** and **Exclusion** are assigned to a Store and all are active, exclusion of Products takes precedence.

To assign a Product Selection to a Store, do the following:

1. Go to **Settings > Project settings** and click the **Stores** tab.
2. Select the Store and, in the **Store settings** section, do the following:
   - From the **Product Selections** drop-down, select the Product Selection.
   - To link the Product Selection to the Store, click the toggle and confirm the action.
3. Click **Save store** and confirm the action.

After saving, all Products in the assigned Product Selection will be immediately available on your storefront.
