Hello everyone,

it's again about handling product variations in the shop db.

Here's my problem:
I'd like to migrate from the shop system "ePages 4.5" to zenCart. I have a lot of products with different item numbers which differ only in some product attributes (e.g. T-Shirts with different colors and sizes).

So I'd like to display online ONE Product with one description an below some kind of matrix showing the variations.

In the old shopsystem this problem has been solved with a so called 'SUPER PRODUCT'. This is like a virtual product which holds all the common information about the PRODUCT FAMILY. So in the DB-Model there where two fields for each product. One field is holding the real item number an the other holds the virtual super product item number. There is also another field containing a boolean value for the default variation which is selected when clicking the super product.

So it's very easy for the customers to select the suitable variation.

Is there anybody with a remedy or a similar problem who has already solved it?

Thanx a lot.
