Default Re: X5 - Pointers Please for Adding Attribute Codes to SKU

I think it's just easier for them. They know their products and options very well so a string of characters can tell them everything they need to know about a configured product.

They want it to appear in on the product page because a lot of customers will call them when they are on this page.

The car example works well here. If you worked in car dealership and you were given the SKU...

FF-MRED-SAT-2L-ALY-ZN

You'd know it was a Ford Focus with metallic red paint, a sat nav, 2 litre engine, alloy wheels and zenon headlights. They can see at a glance the configured product.

I'm doing ok with the module on the cart page but I'm going round in circles on the product page. I could do it in JavaScript by getting the selected values but I would prefer to use the code in the attribute classes in PHP.
