Ahh there is no option to enable apply_to portion of a product attribute via the Magento instance as there is no access to install scripts or database...

Hi @ksenia-zlotin,

Thank you for reporting and collaboration.

We have checked the issue in our local instance and also we don't have the option enable apply_to portion of a product attribute could you please provide more information how we can enable this option.

Thanks

[ksenia-zlotin]

@engcom-Bravo Two ways that can be done in core Magento: 1) a Magento data patch which creates the attribute with the apply_to configuration set to simple, or 2) creation of the attribute via the admin and then altering its apply_to in the catalog_eav_attribute table directly in the database.

Hello @ksenia-zlotin,

Thank you for the report and collaboration!

We were able to reproduce this issue on 2.4-develop. We created a data patch to add the custom product attribute with the option 'apply_to' => 'simple'. Please take a look at the screenshot below: After clicking Save & New or Save & Duplicate, we got the custom attribute field in the product page.

As soon as the page is refreshed or the Attribute Set is reselected, the custom attribute field disappears.

Hence confirming the issue.

Please find the below custom module used to add data patch. AttributeVendor.zip

Thank you.
