Rules triggered by category vs item

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Imagine a computer has space for two items in it
It must have at least one of category A but if it has 2 it cant have any of category B
Currently i use the drop down box scenario as there are options in each category and it doesn't matter which option is selected. There is then the multiple box to choose one/two etc
How do i configure the store to enforce the above using this new feature?
Also it would be handy is people could select a category as opposed to an Item  - if the customer chooses anything from cat a then they can only choose cat b

	The system currently supports only rules that are based on the selection of an individual item. If you select item XYZ, then... I believe that what you are suggesting is that the system be improved so that: A rule can be triggered by the selection of ANY item in a certain category A rule can be configured to disable selections in a second category if more than N items have been selected in the first category (this assumes that the first category has been setup for multiple selections) Is this correct?

	Hi, I know this posted a long long time ago, but this idea makes perfect sense. The conflict management rules should be set from a single page and these rules would apply to all BTO configurations....Rather than going through each BTO configuration and applying the rules. Has anyone looked into this since? I think it's a major weakness of the conflict management tool as it is really time consuming to make sure the rules are updated after a product has been removed or added to BTO configurations.
