Templates can be generated initially with multiple types. In these templates, a bundle of options is added including the product attributes and option information such as option title, option type, option price, price type, and option SKU.

The assigning same template to a number of products becomes really time-saving and easily with few clicks at the backend.

Assign templates in 2 ways

A template can be assigned in two approaches: Product IDs and Product SKU

Product IDs

Product IDs means that admin can enter the IDs of all products they intend to have the same products option onto a certain template.

Product SKU

Similarly, you can assign templates to be used in product options by its SKU. Both ways are implemented on the Edit Template Page or even right on Product Grid.
