Attributes

Name	Type	Description
BarCode	string (16) nullable	When specified, it contains a bar code which uniquely identifies the product variant. `Filter(eq;like)` `ORD`
Code	string (16)	The code of the variant. The code is unique within the Product. It is the concatenation of the codes of the color, size and style. `Required` `Filter(eq;like)` `ReadOnly`
DisplayText	string	Uses the repository DisplayTextFormat to build the display text from the attributes and references of current object.
Id	guid
Name	MultilanguageString (512) nullable	Product variant name. It is the concatenation of the names of the color, size and style. `ReadOnly`
ObjectVersion	int32	The latest version of the extensible data object for the aggregate root for the time the object is loaded from the database. Can be used for optimistic locking.
ShortCode	string (32) nullable	Short code of the variant, that is unique within the Product. Usually used as a data element in data encoded barcodes (e.g., GS1-128 barcodes). `Filter(eq;like)` `Introduced in version 23.1.1.19`

References

Name	Type	Description
Product	Products	The product for which this variant is defined. `Required` `Filter(multi eq)` `Owner`
VariantColor	VariantColors (nullable)	The color of the variant. null means that the variant does not have a specific color. `Filter(multi eq)`
VariantSize	VariantSizes (nullable)	The size of the variant. null means that the variant does not have a specific size. `Filter(multi eq)`
VariantStyle	VariantStyles (nullable)	The style of the variant. null means that the variant does not have a specific style. `Filter(multi eq)`

Return Type: Collection Of CustomPropertyValue
Declaring Type: EntityObject
Domain API Request: GET

Parameters

customPropertyCode
The code of the custom property
Type: string
search

Type: string
Optional: True
Default Value: null
exactMatch
If true the search text should be equal to the property value
Type: boolean
