Business Action: Remove Attribute Link

This operation removes an attribute link from a product.

For example, the ‘Offer’ attribute is linked to a number of products during a seasonal special offer promotion. Once the promotion has ended, the attribute should immediately be removed from all products. This can be achieved by creating a collection of all nodes that include the attribute, and then running a bulk update with the Remove Attribute Link business action.

This operation can also be run via a Bulk Update and sample data is provided in the References and Links: Remove Attribute Link Operation topic in the Bulk Updates documentation here.

Prerequisites

Before using this operation:

  1. Ensure the valid attribute is linked to the product. For more information, refer to the Product Attribute Link Type topic in the System Setup documentation here.
  2. Create a business rule as defined in the Creating a Business Rule, Function, or Library topic here.

  2. For the Attribute parameter, click the ellipsis button () to display the Select Attribute dialog, choose the attribute that should be removed and click the Select button.
  1. Click the Save button to add the operation to the business rule editor.
