Title: How to set up composed products (sets)
Post by: EIF on December 14, 2017, 14:00:45 PM
With Virtuemart 3.2.4 I am trying to set up composed products or product sets.

What I like to have is a product X. Product X is a set containing product A, product B and product C. Product X itself has no stock, because it consists of product A, B and C which have their own stock.
If someone buys 2 pieces of product X, then the stock of product A, B and C will lower with a quantity of 2 each.
In the cart it is not nescerray to display product A, B and C, only product X is needed. If it can be displayed, it is a pre.

How can I set this up? With special fields and child products? I tried to, but then the customer itself needs to choose the components of product X, as a option. That is not what I like. Just ordering product X and in the backend the stock of the 3 other products wil lower.

Breakdesigns has a Product builder, checkt it out and ask them if it can do the job.

Very interesting. Thank you!  8)

Conclusion: I need an extension/plugin to manage this.
