Product records for 3D print sellers

Organize each 3D printed product, its variants, production files, dimensions, materials, packaging, pricing details, and marketplace copy in one structured record.

What is a PlyOps product record?

A PlyOps product record keeps the details used to make, price, package, and list a 3D printed product in one place. Sizes, colors, materials, and bundles stay attached as variants instead of becoming duplicate products.

Keep the product and its variants together

A product is the main record. Size, color, material, bundle, and marketplace choices belong underneath it as variants. You can switch variants without leaving the product.

Shared descriptions, files, and notes stay on the product. A variant keeps only the SKU, dimensions, material, packaging, or other details that differ.

  • Duplicate an existing product or variant
  • Assign variant-specific SKUs and dimensions
  • Track active and archived records
  • Review changes in a readable history

Record the details used outside PlyOps

A product record can hold production files, material choices, packaging, pricing details, marketplace copy, tags, SEO fields, and image alt text. It is not an accounting or marketplace inventory record.

  • General and marketplace-specific descriptions
  • Packed and unpacked dimensions
  • Material and packaging assignments
  • Completion checks for missing setup details

Know what the record does not do

PlyOps does not treat a product record as an accounting ledger or a marketplace inventory controller. Marketplace links identify products, variants, listings, and content relationships. They do not silently publish listings or manage live quantities.

Common questions

Are variants separate products?

No. A variant belongs to its parent product and can carry its own SKU, dimensions, material, packaging, weight, notes, and marketplace details where needed.

Can I keep marketplace copy without connecting an account?

Yes. Every plan can store marketplace-specific copy and let you copy individual fields. PlyOps Connect is required for marketplace imports, marketplace-ready files, drafts, and listing updates supported by each provider.

What happens to archived products?

Archived products remain in the library, keep their history, and can be found through archive filters and restored later.
