    help question Fabric Pricing - Help!

    I need to know how to set ZenCart to calculate fabric cost. I would like to have the customer enter .25 for 1/4 yard, .5 for 1/2, .75 or 3/4, 1.25 for 1 and 1/4 yards, 1.5 for 1 and 1/2 yards.....

    Is there an easy way to define this action? Or does it require a custom module.)

    You would need to turn on the Decimals for the Quantity in the Configuration ... Stock ...

    Allow how many decimals on Quantity

    Hi
    Surely this is an ideal subject for the atributes facility with a drop down box showing the measurements and subsiquent costings and the quantity box showing how many of these lengths are required. Just an idea.
    Kind regards

    Thank you! Yes, now it calculates the fabric cost Great! (How simple...)

    BUT! (it's always something, eh..) I have something wrong in the quantity field(s) because I get Quantity Error Adjustment error(s). I have set/reset fields in the product listing, configs, etc., but I (obviously) do not understand what the settings control. I'll re-read the tutorial (again).

    [FONT=Book Antiqua]I am receiving the same error message at the checkout page in regards to decimal quantities. I have set my decimal quantities at 1 and while the price comes up correctly, the error message appears. I have had a customer complain already, so if anyone could help me and explain what I need to do in very simple, step by step language I would appreciate the help.[/FONT]
