Products assembled into sets

Hey Brett,
Thanks again for your test. I was just sending you creds to log in and compare settings, and decided to do one more test, and now I'm getting the same results as you on PC 4.6b (BTO version). 

Like Dave, I spent a fair amount of time testing different configurations (Kelly is more our BTO expert, but I wanted to look into this myself) and I had a hard time believing that this wouldn't be possible with BTO. As with many things in PC, it is so feature-rich with so many possible options, that sometimes it's rather a labyrinth to find the right combination of options to get one's desired result.

The config setting I had earlier that I just changed was that the parent BTO / shell product was set to ignore inventory, though none of standard products configured with it were. So, to get this result it looks like one must have and track inventory on the parent BTO / shell product even though might be irrelevant to one's business rules. Then the standard products configured with the BTO product need to have, of course (as that's the big concern here), inventory set and not disregarded.

So, now we're both getting the same result and it appears to be the one Dave is looking for.

Dave, perhaps you're running an earlier version that an update was latter applied to? Are you running 4.6b or something earlier?

Or perhaps you, like me, didn't get the config options quite right? Hopefully my notes above help, and Brett's test encourages you ... if you're indeed running 4.6b and not something earlier.
