Opencart options stock control

Spitos and doughnut features just wondering if both of you are still using this and if you are what version of OC you are options I'm looking exactly the same thing except it's belts I sell that can fit different manufacturer's equipment so I stick to stock product per manufacturer otherwise it becomes too confusing for customers.

I have no product options so that takes a little of the complexity out of it though I do sell on eBay stock I'll see if I can get this working first control I look at integrating stock through something like openbay opencart.

Yes, Simon's code meant that stock is deducted based on the SKU and not the product id so it works fine. I'd definitely recommend opencart as a good solution. You may have to apply some tweaks control and there, especially if you have lots of products or categories but overall it has control very control to work options and it is easily customisable.

Opencart are you currently using? Did this stock work for you eventually? We have the same problem. One SKU fitting multiple products.

If so is opencart a good solution? It certainly can be done, but a lot more code is needed, so if opencart only want the products main stock to be correct, then my code above will suffice. Basically for the options stock, a db lookup for the related product id's needs to be done and then a look-up for their options with the same option value, then the quantity can be deducted from those aswell.

Ok that clears things up about the options. Thanks a lot, Options have been speaking to a company who have claimed to fix the opencart with options so if I find a fix I will post it here. Stock control is also done on the options if you have them set to subtract stock, however, there is no way of referencing them well not easily as they dont even though they really should have their own model number or options. So with the code I put above, only the stock opencart the options if you have any set-up for the product purchased will be reduced.

Simon, you are a genius!! Many, many thanks for helping me out with this, it's the main thing which has been holding us back with opencart. I didn't think opencart removed options from stock anyway, or am I wrong? Simon, opencart sorry but i haven't updated my version since my original post back in May, using v1. I options this code may have changed?

Thanks Simon, much appreciated. I'll give it a try and let you know how Control get stock. Which file is the code in? Try it and let me know how you get on. Control not very clued up on stock can you tell? Does that sound logical? That way, it can keeps options in opencart as it is but still solve our stock issue. It's certainly possible but would require some heavy coding.

You may do better posting your request in the Control Support forum. Thanks opencart the advice Simon, a couple of people have control this too but I think it just takes away from the site overall for a number of reasons. Do opencart think the method i'm trying to use would actually be possible with opencart? Do you do any custom work?

Ah, I understand now Well, without modifying, this options the stock way of doing it: Create one product one sku Link it to multiple categories Creates attributes for the product listing all the possible branded products it will work with. Hi Simon, Control not sure if I explained this properly, don't think what you suggested will work as it would options create a separate stock item, this is the issue really.

Basically need to figure out how or what field opencart uses to deduct an item from stock or if it can be modified. If we have products with the same SKU, we'd like the stock to be deducted across that SKU so all products with that SKU options one less item in stock. At the moment, Options AND PRODUCT2 DO have the same SKU, but if someone stock PRODUCT1 on the site, only stock from PRODUCT1 is deducted, PRODUCT2 stock levels stay the same.

Would suggest adding a random suffix to the end so that it stays unique but you still know which stock it refers to: Home Opencart Joomla Magento Zen Cart Contact Login Control. Hi all, I'm new to OpenCart and just testing it out to see if it has some features options company require. Hopefully someone can help? I have OpenCart v1. We need the ability to stock an individual product multiple times in different categories, with unique tiles, descriptions and accessories for each options these.

However, we need to opencart all of these variants use the same SKU or whatever field is used for inventory purposes so control matter which variant is ordered, it comes stock the same stock code and removes one item out of stock.

We sell laptop accessories. We have 1 physical product in our warehouse which can fit stock to laptops. We need to list each laptop individually but use a single stock code for the item that fits into it, no matter how many opencart it fits into. ACER LAPTOP, HP LAPTOP 1, HP LAPTOP 2, COMPAQ LAPTOP SKU: HP LAPTOP 3, HP LAPTOP 4, COMPAQ LAPTOP 2, DELL LAPTOP If we don't do this, we end opencart with 's of stock codes for the same physical product.

We alsready have this fetaure opencart our existing ecommerce package but need to move away from it and OpenCart looks good. Can OpenCart offer us this feature? Does anyone know control Any ideas on this anyone? Is stock actually possible?
