Inserting new data field to cart from product's details

I've created a drop-down not by custom fields, at product's details page. I just want to extract the data from it (it's chosen value) and transfer that to cart's checkout (and into the order itself).
Seems easy, might anyone know that way to get that?

this needs to be done as a plugin.

it needs to be a "cart variant"

then, in checking out , you can get the data

sorry, but i cant help alot. I know it can be done.

Is that the only way? Using a custom field? Can't I use my own <input> and somehow move that data/value to the cart and order?



Why I don't want to use custom field?
1. I need to create few drop-downs which affect each other.
2. Using custom-fields in the back-office is quite messy.

So the core functionality provided does not suit your business need.

And you therefore seem to require a bespoke solution, most things are possible - but if you do not have the technical knowledge - you may have to pay someone to do this on your behalf.

I appreciate the answer AH, I guess I'll have to use a custom plug-in then. Thank you.
