# Sync specific product fields

### ✅ Why use this setting?

Use this when you want to:

* Keep some information different in the Destination store (ex: local language description, local pricing)
* Sync only the important fields (ex: inventory + price)
* Avoid overwriting content that you manage separately in the Destination store

***

### 🛠️ **Step to manage**

1. Open the app in **Destination** store > click **Settings > Product Fields to Synchronize**
2. Select one option for each product field.

There are 3 options for you:

* **Sync**: Keep this field always up to date. Any change in the Source store will update the Destination store.
* **Create only**: Copy this field only when the product is first created. Later changes in the Source store won’t update it.
* **Don’t sync**: Never copy this field. Manage it separately in the Destination store.

4\. Click **Save** to finish.

For example:

* if you want to sync product title from Source store to Destination store, select **Sync** option
* if you do not want to sync product price from Source store to Destination store, select **Don’t sync** option

**Note:**&#x20;

Products are synced by handle so the **title** and **variant title** are required to be synced. You need to select option “Sync” or “Create and don’t sync” for them.

### &#x20;🧪 Example Scenarios

* Synchronizing Product Titles:

If you want the product titles in the Destination Store to always match those in the Source Store, select **Sync** for the Title field.​

* Maintaining Unique Prices:

To set different prices in the Destination Store, select **Don’t Sync** for the Price field. This allows you to manage pricing independently.​

* One-Time Description Setup:

If you want the product description to be copied during the initial sync but not updated afterward, choose **Create and Don’t Sync** for the Description field.

* Sync inventory only

Products are synced by handle so the **title** and **variant title** are required to be synced.

You need to select option “**Sync**” or “**Create and don’t sync”** for Title and Variant title.&#x20;

Select **Don’t sync** options for other fields.
