Create template
--------
If you have multiple products that have the same set of attributes, you can save time by setting up attributes for one product and then creating a template of the attribute set that you can then apply to the other products.
To do this, do "Connect attributes to the product" and "Connect multiple values belonging to the same attribute to the product".
When you are done with this, click on the icon with the blue floppy disk located at the top right.
In the "New Name" field, type an appropriate name for the template or overwrite an existing template by selecting the template from the "Existing" drop-down menu.
To then use the template on other products, edit one of these products and select the template in the drop-down menu with the text "- Templates -" and then click on the first icon just to the right of this drop-down menu.
As you can see, the product gets the same attribute set as the previous product. (3)
