Attribute Updates

We request that our partnered merchants manage their inventory and update products as leasable or non leasable by utilizing the attributes in WooCommerce. To remain in compliance with our agreement please review our leasable and non leasable items.

If your products are Simple Products and Product_Variants they may execute Mysql query. This query will grab all products and update the attribute to Yes.
