Products with a choice of BOTH quantities AND colors ???

[Cheeky Monkey]

HOW DO YOU SET UP A PRODUCT TO BE OFFERED TO A CUSTOMER WITH A CHOICE OF SEVERAL CHOICES BUT WITH SEVERAL MORE CHOICES WITHIN EACH CHOICE.

I have been trying to work this one out for months and got no joy so far. Can't find any example in the manual to do this either.

I need to provide customers that want to buy a product as a single item, a pack of 2, pack of 3, pack of 4, pack of 5 etc. but also a color choice e.g. red, blue, green, yellow, white.

So really there are say 5 quantity choices and 5 color choices. But I need the customer to be able to choose ANY quantity in ANY color combinations.

So, real flexibility of choice is needed, for example, a customer may need to be able to buy a pack of 5 (one blue, two red, one green and one yellow) and pay the '5 pack' price. Or, for example a pack of 4 all one color.

Presently I have the product available with the quantities set up with the correct prices but cannot get the 'color option' integrated into the set up.

Somebody must know how to do this???

Have a look at

NorMatrix - Major extension to Actinic implementing Colour / Size type quantity matrixes.

This should do it.

Normatrix might well do it. It has the capability to set a minimum total order and this could easily be amended to set a maximum as well.
