Hey again,
 
 We just upgraded our store to v4 of ProductCart and are looking forward to using this  http://wiki.earlyimpact.com/updates/v4 - new feature that was listed as one of the updates in v4 :
 
 "Limit Number of Selections (BTO) 
 The configuration page in ProductCart Build To Order can now enforce a maximum number of selections (e.g. Box of 12 chocolates: you can only pick up to 12 items)."
 
 Can anyone tell me where I can find this feature? I'm in the v4 BTO configuration screen, but I don't see a quantity limit option anywhere near the "Show Details" "Required Category" "Display Quantity Field", etc. buttons. Any ideas?

Go to Edit the product > Price & BTO settings
 Its the last option on that tab. Maximum number of selections:

  That's a bummer - I thought you could edit the maximum quantity of each individual standard product within a BTO product. Within one BTO configurator, for instance, we have multiple standard products which need different quantity limits (not one limit for the entire BTO product). I take it there's no way to do what we're looking for, at least with this version of ProductCart.
 
 Oh well. Thanks for tip anyway, whizzinpc.

It's designed to work at the BTO product level, not the item level. It's meant to be used in a scenario where you have a "menu" of items to pick from, but a limited number of selections that you can pick (e.g. pick any 6 wine bottles).

Wow, I can see something really useful here.  For a promotion only:  One (or whatever) number max per customer.  Just a thought.
