This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is unsure about the function of the 'Synchronize attributes and update product variations' button in the context of translating variable products. They are confused because they thought variations were automatically generated when translating variable products.
Solution:
We explained that the 'Synchronize attributes and update product variations' button is crucial for keeping original variations and their translations up-to-date. This button becomes particularly useful when there are changes in attributes or variations that require updates. In the client's scenario, the presence of 118 variations needing creation suggests that these are updates rather than entirely new variations. By clicking this button and allowing the process to complete, the client should see their product variations correctly synchronized.
We recommend regularly checking this function when updating or creating new attributes, or when making changes to variable products, to ensure all translations are current.
