Stock inventory allowing multi buys without each variant needing its own stock level?

Stock inventory allowing multi buys without each variant needing its own stock level?

Hi all, 

 

Looking for an inventory system that will allow me to offer products with options that include multi buy that I discount the price and will deduct from stock level accordingly.  

 

Example:

 

I sell an item (say a herb) with option: 'weight' with 5g, 10g & 20g variants.  

 

I also want an option: 'pieces' with 1, 2 & 5 pcs variants. I DONT want to have to issue a stock level for each of the 'pcs' variants.

 

Say I have a stock of 100 x 5g, 100 x 10g and 100 x 20g

 

An order is placed, say  5g, 2pcs x qty 1 (=2pcs).  This will then deduct from master stock level.

 

At present I would have to place a stock amount for the varient 5g, 2pcs which means I have to pre assign how many 1pcs,2pcs and 5pcs I want to sell like that, which is hard to predict, hence wanting to give customers the ability to multi buy and have it come directly from a master stock level. 

 

Make sense?
