# Lesson 3.1 - Configure enumerations

Create four enumerations for product size and color that the product variant components will use as dropdown fields.

In this lesson, you will create enumerations for product size and color values that the product variant components will use. These must exist in the schema before you can build the product variant components in lesson 4.

## Add enumerations

All enumerations follow the same process. In the Schema editor, click **+Add** next to **Enumerations** in the left sidebar. Fill in the display name and API ID, then add enumeration values one by one by entering the display name and clicking **+ Add**. Click **Add Enumeration** to save.

1. Go to **Schema**, and click **+Add** next to **Enumerations**.
2. Provide the following values for each enumeration, and click **Add Enumeration** to save.

    **Clothes size**

    |Field              |Input                                            |
    |-------------------|-------------------------------------------------|
    |Display name       |Clothes size                                     |
    |API ID             |ClothesSize                                      |
    |Enumeration values |One by one, add the following: XS, S, M, L, XL   |

    **Shoes size**

    | Field | Input |
    |---|---|
    | Display name | Shoes size |
    | API ID | ShoesSize |
    | Enumeration values | Size_35, Size_36, Size_37, Size_38, Size_39, Size_40, Size_41, Size_42, Size_43, Size_44 |

    **Wearable items color**

    | Field | Input |
    |---|---|
    | Display name | Wearable items color |
    | API ID | WearableItemsColor |
    | Enumeration values | Red, Green, Blue, Black, White |

    **Decor items color**

    | Field | Input |
    |---|---|
    | Display name | Decor items color |
    | API ID | DecorColor |
    | Enumeration values | Gold, Silver, Bronze, Cobalt |

After adding all enumerations, the left sidebar should look like this:

**Why separate enumerations for shoes and clothes sizes?** Shoes and clothing use different size scales. A single "size" enumeration would mix EU shoe sizes with clothing sizes, producing a dropdown that is inconvenient to use in the content editor. Separate enumerations keep each product type's fields meaningful and required.
