**Size charts** help your customers pick the right size and cut down on returns. You build a table of sizes (INT XS to 5XL, US, UK, EU, JP and more) with body measurements such as chest, waist or foot length, then attach it to products, categories or brands. Clothing boutiques, shoe stores, uniform and kidswear shops, jewelers (ring sizes) and abaya or shalwar kameez stores use it.

> **How to turn it on**
> 1. **Plan:** Included in every plan.
> 2. **Switch:** No module switch. The page is Products › Size charts.
> 3. **Permission:** View size charts (see the page). Add, edit and delete size charts (create, change, import and set Markets).
> - **Mobile app:** Not managed in the SmartPOS Business app. Charts show on your online store, widgets and the web POS.

## What a size chart contains

- **Columns**: size systems (INT, US, UK, EU, IT, FR, DE, ES, JP, CN, KR, AU, BR, MX, RU, IN, PK, Mondopoint), body measurements (chest, bust, waist, hips, inseam, foot length, finger circumference and many more) or your own columns.
- **Rows**: one per size. Ranges are written like `86-91`.
- **Unit**: cm or inches, with an option to **Let shoppers switch between cm and inches**.
- **How to measure** and a **Fit note**, plus an optional image.
- **Applies to**: categories, brands, or brand + category combinations.

## First-time setup

1. Open **Products › Size charts**.
2. Click **Import prebuilt** to start from ready-made charts: women's, men's, kids and baby, shoes, lingerie, accessories (rings, belts, hats), South Asian wear and Middle Eastern wear. Tick the charts you need and import them. Imported charts are active but not attached yet.
3. Click **Markets** and choose which size systems your customers see first. The default for your country is ticked already. Tick **Show all size systems** if you sell to many countries. Under **Per location (optional)** you can give a branch abroad its own systems.
4. Click **Edit** on each chart and set **Applies to**: pick the categories and brands it covers. The page shows how many products it applies to.

## Everyday use

### Add or edit a chart

1. Click **Add** (or **Edit** on a chart).
2. Fill in the name, chart type and who it is for.
3. In the grid, add columns from size systems, measurements or a custom column, then add a row per size. You can paste a block straight from Excel or Google Sheets, or use **Paste from spreadsheet**.
4. Set **Applies to**, add **How to measure** and a **Fit note** if useful.
5. Save. The message tells you how many products the chart now applies to.

### Choose a chart on one product

On the product form, the **Size chart** field sits next to **Warranty**:

| Choice | Result |
|---|---|
| **Automatic (from category or brand)** | Uses the chart of its sub-category, category or brand. The hint shows which chart, for example Shows "Women's Dresses" (from category Dresses). |
| **No size chart** | This product never shows a size chart. |
| A chart name | Always shows that chart. |

When several rules match, the most specific wins: product, then brand + category, then sub-category, then category, then brand.

### At the till and online

- In the POS, click the product name in the cart row to open its window, then **Size chart** to show the chart with that row's size highlighted.
- In your online store and shop widgets the product shows a **Size guide** in your Markets size systems.
- You can also set a chart per product in **Import Products** with the **SIZE CHART (name)** column.

## Permissions

| Permission (Roles page, SizeCharts section) | What it allows |
|---|---|
| View size charts | Open **Products › Size charts** and view charts |
| Add, edit and delete size charts | Add, edit, duplicate, delete, import prebuilt charts and change **Markets** |

Staff who can view products or sell can always open a chart from the product view or the POS without these permissions.

## Tips

- Brands fit differently. Duplicate a chart and adjust it for a brand that runs small, then attach it to that brand + category.
- Use **Duplicate** to make a kids version of an adult chart quickly.
- Keep variation names matching the size column (S, M, L or 38, 40, 42) so the right row is highlighted.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do size charts cost extra?

No. Size charts are part of every plan and have no module switch. You only need the View size charts and Add, edit and delete size charts permissions.

### Is a size chart the same as variations?

No. Variations are the sizes you sell, each with its own stock and price. A size chart only describes what each size means (chest, waist, EU or US size). The chart links to your variations by size name.

### Do I have to attach a chart to every product?

No. Attach a chart to a category, a sub-category, a brand or a brand plus category, and every matching product shows it automatically. Pick a chart on a single product only for exceptions.

### Which size systems will my customers see?

The ones set under Markets, which start from a default for your country. A location can show different systems, and customers can always switch to the others on the chart.

### Can I stop a product from showing a chart?

Yes. On the product form choose No size chart in the Size chart field. The product will never show one, even if its category has a chart.

### Where do customers see the size chart?

On the product page of your online store and in shop widgets as a Size guide. Staff can also open it at the till from the product row in the POS.

### What happens when I delete a chart?

It moves to the Recycle Bin and products stop showing it. You can restore it from the Recycle Bin.
