Can I remove a required option from a quote line?

Quotes and ordersUpdated 2 Nov 2026

Short answer

No. Required options must remain on the configured line.

In the app, Add field adds optional fields, and the trash control removes optional ones.

Hide options only collapses the display; it does not remove the customer's selections or make required options optional.

Is Required set on the option or on the template?

Set When ordering to Required or Optional on the bundle or template. The shared option page has no Required control. A bundle also offers Inherit, which uses the option's stored Required setting; choose an explicit requirement when staff must complete the choice.

Why can’t I hide a required option online?

A required option needs a Starts as value before Hide on the online store becomes available. Set the starting choice on the template, then hide the option and save. Online requests use that value even though the customer never selects it, so choose a valid default your staff can review later.

What is the difference between options and order fields?

Options describe a product line and can add to its price; order fields collect information once for the whole quote or order. Fabric belongs on the Linden Sofa line, while Delivery floor belongs to the order.

Order fields never change the price. Options and order fields share one internal-name list, so each name can be used only once.

Do categories decide which options a product shows?

No. A template's options and bundles determine which choices it offers.

Categories group templates, set their Shopify product type, and carry warranty, terms, signature, deposit and commission rules. Assigning Linden Sofa to Sofas does not automatically add Fabric or Cushion Fill.
