Hey @Knaagbox
Apologies - I thought you were looking for development advice. My suggestion would require a developer to complete the customization.
Topic summary
Need to map multiple SKUs in the cart (e.g., SKU:001 + SKU:002) to a single fulfillment SKU (SKU:003) for prepacked combo products. Existing bundle apps create new products instead of converting cart SKUs into one backend SKU.
Key constraints and workaround:
- SKUs cannot be changed dynamically in orders.
- Workaround: compute a “combined SKU” and store it in order notes or cart attributes, implemented via Liquid or Shopify Functions (custom app code).
- Terms: SKU = stock keeping unit; cart attributes = custom metadata attached to a cart; Shopify Functions = custom app functionality to modify commerce logic.
Follow-up: The requester couldn’t implement the notes/attributes approach via settings alone and only found customer-editable order notes. They lack programming skills; custom build via Experts was quoted as costly.
Current status/outcome:
- No built-in or settings-only solution to merge SKUs into one on the backend.
- Proposed approach requires a developer to implement custom Liquid/Functions logic.
- Thread remains open without a turnkey resolution.
