Ecommerce: Link avalible items to clothes sizes

Hi,
I'm setting up an e-commerce site for selling clothes. Every product will have a list of sizes (e.g. Small, Medium, Large etc). Instead of showing avalible items just for the product I would like to show avalible items according to the sizes for each product (e.g. Small 12 items, Medium 13 items).

I've tried to do this using Product Options but the problem is that every products different sizes then will have the same number of avalible items because the value is linked to the product option instead of the product.
I would like to link the sizes avalible items to the product.

Is there anyway to do this?

Best regards

Yes we need the same functionality.

We have Size/Color/Length and would ideally have a sku/inventory for each combination.

Ideally on the product detail page you would load the color/length combinatons for a particular size (and vis a vis) using ajax so the page does not reload when you change the size (color/length).

Can anyone point us in the right direction? Or can provide some code that implements the product options in this manner?

Cheers

Richard

Kentico Developer	kentico_ivanat - 11/7/2011 6:29:31 AM RE:Ecommerce: Link avalible items to clothes sizes Hi, yes, you can do it directly in the version 6.0. How to create a new product option is described here: Add a new product option Then if you open the product option, you will see a field Available items where you can define for example number of red T-shirts.

Thanks Ivana

This has not really changed since 5.5 (and all previous versions).

This works fine when you have a single set of colour options (eg red tshirts) however when you have clothing (or any other product types that have size/color options) you have colors and sizes and each of these combinations is a separate SKU with separate stock, e.g. red tshirts only come in small and medium and we only have a certain number of each of these colour/size combinations. Kentico ecommerce does just not handle this scenario at all.

Again I reiterate until this is changed to allow conditional/multi-level product options (like every other 'fully fledged' eCommerce system does) it really does reduce the usefulness of Kentico ecommerce (without building a lot of custom code).

It was "planned" for 6.0 on User Voice and I am disappointed that this has now been changed to "planned for 7.0" - is this to be believed?

Cheers

Richard

I am sorry for this inconvenience. Best regards, Ivana Tomanickova
