[TYPO3-commerce] Need advice about implementing product articles

[Barbara Wijbenga]

Thank you.
I'm using Shall for quantity now. And Select for size and weight.

But... I have another thing that needs to be an option: Whether the product 
is cooled or not... This has to be a checkbox.
How do I make that?

Barbara
