Minimum no. of units

 

I think we had different requirements.  As far as I understand you had quite an unusal requirement in that the total order quantity of any mix of products had to be at least X qty.   Hence you were able to apply a generic rule.

 

My requirement is product specific and I need to be able to specify both a minimum purchase qty and a multiple purchase quantity for every single product.  The minimum and multiple quantities may also be different for each product.

 

I guess the ideal solution, if I can pay EI to bring the mod they did for me up to latest revision is to ask whether they can also include the code in a future productcart revision.  The modification enabled the admin to change a products mutliple order quantity so it could be of benefit to other Productcart users ?

 

 

 

The requirement that this client was that on a category-by-category basis (but not all products), there was a minimum which could mix within like products.  As the shopper proceeds to checkout.asp, we determine if qualifying products appeared on the order.  Then we examine the quantity ordered for each qualifying group, and display an error instructing the shopper accordingly if their selections did not meet the requirements.

 

A fairly simple mod, possibly useful to others.

 

The inbuilt functionality in PC is very close but unfortunately (and I think rather strangely) is that the multiples must be the same quantity as the minimum quantity.  So it is fine to force a minimum of 10 and then 20, 30, 40, 50 etc but I cannot force a minimum of 20 and then every 10.

 

Thanks for the PM.  I will dig out the files that Cedric sent me for the paid mod and drop them on an email.  I am happy to pay to bring the files up to latest rev because I have never actually made use of my Productcart licence for 18 months and would love to switch my store.
