Solution for product variation?

[snap]

Hi,
on the way trying to find a solution in Virtuemart (2) to creat multiple product variations, I found an example ...

http://www.absperrtechnik24.de/Gefahrstelle+Nr+101,w1351839506-2926.htm

Does anybody know how to creat such tables for one product or is it a software solution? May be somebody can help me with knowledge or "software"...

Thanks snap

I think that it can be done with custom fields.
But you have to edit the output to be like this.

Another option is to use the Product Builder. http://breakdesigns.net/extensions/vm-product-builder/
In this case each variation should be 1 product in your Virtumart shop.

Thanks for fast answer! As we don't need stockable variants I prefer first solution. The "output" can be generated with custom field "editor"?

I think that you should assign your custom fields in a specific position of the product details page and then edit the output from the file:
components\com_virtuemart\views\productdetails\tmpl\default_addtocart.php

There is the code for the output of the custom fields which are "Cart Variants" i.e. selectable

You also could do this with an embedded custom form instead of standard VM2 custom fields, since you don't need to track inventory by option.

Depends on whether you feel comfortable building out your own form, and if you have the budget to buy the necessary extensions to use an embedded form approach.
