How can I allow customers to customize their candy jar order?

[LauraBuckley]

Hi, 

I sell confectionery on my site and would like the customer to choose their assortment in a jar of sweets. For example, I would give 40+ options (images) and they could choose max 10. Ideally I'd like to track the inventory but not sure if there's a way of doing this. 

Thanks

Hi

There are 2 different types of bundle apps.

One type is creating custom pages in your theme and letting your buyers select different items as part of a bundle before check out. These are then added as individual order lines. This is probably the way you would need to go or otherwise use an options app.

The other bundle app type is creating a virtual item (normal single product) that states in contains a certain set of components. You would need to use a third party app to bundle each kit up with the relevant SKUs.

Couple of things you need to consider is fulfilment and inventory management. Our bundle app will let you connect up all your products to correct SKUs and we then update their inventory based on the component stock level. 

We also have the additional option of unbundling orders made for a bundled product into the component SKUs post purchase. This way the order lines are only for components and can be fulfilled as per normal.

If you need assistance in setting up and testing please get in touch or check our guide:

Great. We sell each component as it's own individual sku already so this sounds the best way to go
