Advanced Inventory Control


Guest

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know of a contribution which will track inventory by sub categories. Fpr example I have a client who sells shirts in different sizes and colors/. They need a way to track inventory according to how many of each color and size are in stock. The standard quantity only indicates a total number. If you have 15 small shirts, 5 red, 5 blue and 5 green, and sell 2 blue and 3 red, the current quantity on hand will show 10 items in stock. While there are only 2 red left, it will accept an order for more than 2 red. Is there a contrib that can handle this problem? Thanks

There are actually a few different ways to do this...

 

There are 2 contributions: One is QTPro which I have not used.

 

There is also Master Products which allows you to have masters and slaves, but its very time consuming to use it and it also does not allow you to create 'product matrixes' rather each individual size and color combination must be entered.

 

I also recently learned of an OSCommerce spinoff called XT-Commerce. It's a spinoff of oscommerce and this one has advanced inventory tracking like what you are looking for. Maybe someone can figure out how they did it and create a mod for OSCommerce?

 

Good luck, inventory tracking seems to be a weakpoint in every ecommerce program I try out...
