I have a website that sells tangible goods. I have goods that I sell that I offer quantity discounts and they also vary by color. I know one way to use the inventory management tools is to have it listed in e-junkie as "1" products and using variants to create drop down selections for quantity & color etc.

However I feel that this limits the exposure on my website somewhat. That is why I currently list them as separate goods. Also some of my items incorporate items together to make 1 wholly new product. Is there a way to link the inventory management numbers from one item to the next?

For example:

Customer can buy widget1. Customer can also buy widget2 which happens to contain a widget1 within it.

I would like to see the following happen after checkout:

1) Customer buys 1 x widget1. My inventory gets reduced by 1 x widget1
2) Customer buys 1 x widget2. My inventory gets reduced by 1 x widget1
3) Customer buys 1 x widget1 and 1 x widget2. My inventory gets reduced by 2 x widget1

Thanks for any info anyone can provide!

Unfortunately, it's simply not possible.

E-junkie,

Thanks for your reply.

In reference to the previous posts, is there a way to specify an unlimited quantity for inventory management?

Thanks again.

You can either enter a very high number there or you can simply disable the inventory management.

E-junkie,

Again, many thanks for your quick answers!
