Quantity by colour and size

How to I manage my quantity product by colour and size?

Example,

Dress 001
Red - Size: S - 5pcs, M - 4pcs, L - 2pcs
Black - Size: S - 3pcs, M - 2pcs, L - 1pcs

Dress 002
Green - Size: S - 7pcs, M - 5pcs, L - 8pcs
White - Size: S - 5pcs, M - 2pcs, L - 4pcs

In my Attribute Manager, I have changed my dresses with colours and sizes. But how can I associate quantity by colours and size in one product page? The product page only allow me to add overall quantity. It does not make sense if a dress has 2 colours and 3 sizes but only 1 quantity in a page :(

Not a built in feature of ZenCart

Look in the free software addons link above left for a 3rd party contribution named "stock by attributes"

Re: Quantity by colour and size

Hi Kobra! I really appreciate your super quick advice :) I tried to look at free software add ons and found this:

http://www.zen-cart.com/index.php?main_page=product_contrib_info&products_id=310

It made my life miserable for an hour while changing file names and due to some syntax errors. But it works well now! :clap:

Note to others
Some error occured in stock_attribute.sql while running the scripts via Install SQL Patches..

Error: "zen_cfg_select_option(array('true', 'false'),"
Changed to: 'zen_cfg_select_option(array("true", "false")),'

Error: "zen_cfg_select_option(array('true', 'false'),"
Changed to: 'zen_cfg_select_option(array("true", "false")),'

Re: Quantity by colour and size

Hi,

Thanks for the tips on using attribute based inventory.

Is it possible to limit to options in a drop down menu for attributes that have zero quantity in stock?

For example, if I have same product with three different colours:

  • blue
  • red
  • yellow

How can I limit the selection on a product page to only show red and blue, if I've sold out all the yellow ones? Currently all attribute values that I set for a product are visible as selection no matter to stock quantity.

Re: Quantity by colour and size

I have the same question as Mikkis. I do not want an attribute to appear in the dropdown if there is nothing in stock. I would think this would make my customers unhappy.

There are only the modules that have been contributed....
One would have to custom code this extention of it to not display...

You can post in the commercial help wanted area
