Product Quantity in Kit

Post by elephant » Fri Jul 23, 2010 2:25 pm

Hi,

How do I allow a customer to select the quantity of a product that is part of a Kit? So they order a single kit, but as part of that can order X number of one of the products inside the kit. The total price of the kit should of course change based on the product quantity selected, and any quantity discount price rules should be applied to that product.

Thanks!

This is not possible. When you are creating kits it means that you are going to create kits with certain quantities etc for kit components. So when customer will try to purchase a kit he/she can't change quantities and other stuff on components because you have already defined what it is going to contain.

Is there a way to do this without using kits?

Right now, we are using kits for out product accessories and a lot of our customers want to buy several of the main product and only one of the accessories. Right now, a quantity change updates everything selected and not just the main product.

Is there a way to have a product and accessories on the same page with individual quantity boxes and one add to cart button?


Thank you,
Shala

What about the existing accessories handling, upon edit product screen you can define product accessories for a product. Then from retail side when some one will try to purchase this product he/she will be presented with accessories associated with product.

Thanks for your quick reply, Mazhar: I want the accessories to show up on the product page with a check box next to each accessory for selection. The customer would be able to select which accessories he/she wants and add everything to their cart with one add to cart button. Much like the kit with the check box selection but I would need to be able to adjust quantities on each individual product. I digging through the CategoryGridPage3 code to see what I can find. I just wanted to make sure it was possible before I spent too much time with it.
