  • The link icon (🔗): Indicates the attribute is managed by a Product Group. Changing this value will update all other items in that group.
  • The lock icon (🔒): Appears if an attribute is controlled at the Department or Sub-Department level.
✏️ Note: Rules always override Groups. If a Department Template forces a No on EBT Eligibility, a Product Group cannot override it to Yes.
