Product Variants and Product Name, Product List Price

worldomega · #1 02-28-2010, 06:01 AM

Is it at all possible for each product variant field to automatically add to the product name and also have its own list price.

For example,

vitamin, 60 softgels
vitamin, 120 softgels

"vitamin" is product with "60 softgels" and "120 softgels" as variants.

It would be nice to show the product name as "Vitamin, 60 softgels" or "Vitamin, 120 sofgels" depending on which variant is displayed. Ideally, this "extra field" info about variant should propagate to the page title also. The advantage of this is it is more customer friendly instead of creating multiple pages.

Also, they should have their own list prices, so that the sale price reflects off the correct "market price" for each variant.

Is this possible in 4.3?

If it is not possible through variants, what is the best way to accomplish this?

Productvariants do not have their own listprice. Only sale price.
Choosing a variant only flips the price and sku and stocklevel (if displayed).
Qualiteam can easily modify this for you if you wish to have the functionality you described.

Thanks! I was hoping for some hints to implement it myself and share with the forum. Not sure how much Qualiteam would charge? I am sure this feature is not unique to me!

Hi worldomega

Did you make any progress with this feature on your project?

It seems like a missed opportunity for a mod to do this, and I agree - we cannot be the only 2 people who use Xcart and need this function.

I contacted Xcart to quote me for modifying variants to include list price, they quoted initially $200

I need to check that includes the ability to import Inventory of list price and market price for variants too.

Hi

I have also just today realized that i need this MOD. So if it's still open count me in.

Cheers

Raising hand for list price and sale price on variants for v 4.3.2

And we are NOT upgrading to the new version.

I don't think QT will add any new features to any XC version other than 4.4.3 unless you pay to have this custom coded

This really is a basic feature and should already be in there.

Such basic stuff is being overlooked and then charged for.

for us a reason to look out for a other shoppingcart and we found one and which have all that what we need as standard and under x-cart we must pay 1000 of $ for customizing, so sad because we using xcart for about 10 years now
