Stock problem for special gift box

Hi !

I have a new problem :wacko:

I am going to sell jewerly.. With these jewerlies, you can order a gift box if you want. So, I did an attribute called Gift Box and you can choose either without a gift box or with a gift box (costs extra and more weight).

So, if I have 5 pcs of a ring, and the customer want to have a box for this ring, ZC will say that the item is out of stock. But I have 5 rings in stock. But I didn't say anywhere that I have 100 gift boxes. Is it possible to do this somewhere ?

If I enter Products with Attribute Stock and enter 100 goxes for this ring, ZC thinks that I have 100 rings on stock.

I am using 1.3.5 with Stocks by attributes for 1.3.5. I hope you understand what I mean.

Regards,
Typhoon

Re: Stock problem for special gift box

Is the question unclear or noone have a solution ? Do I have to put a description text for each product on which gift box fits with the product and force the customer to go to a gift box category and order it manually ?

Re: Stock problem for special gift box

Ok, so maybe a link to the problem will be easier.

If you order one, klick on shopping cart, you will see that it's out of stock, even if I have 1 on stock. It doesn't matter if you choose "None" or "Gift Box 2", it will say "Out of stock", because ZC don't know that I have 100 gift boxes onstock. So, how to solve this problem, as above and make the customer to enter a category called gift box and that he have to order it from that category ? Or do anyone else have a better solution ?

Re: Stock problem for special gift box

At this time, Zen Cart does not manage Stock by Attributes ... so we would not know how many Gift boxes you have vs rings in stock ...
