Ok, so I’ll apologise in advance. Here’s my scenario.
I sell item A by weight and as part of bundles across different collections. Let’s say it is sold as:
-
Product 1 - 100g & 200g variants (in collection X)
-
Product 2 - 5kg & 10kg variants (in collection Y)
-
Product 3 (along with other unrelated items) - 100g and 200g (in collection Z)
I want to track item A where units on hand are the minimum quantity. So if I had 5kg on hand this would be:
-
Product 1 - 100g (50 units available) & 200g variants (25 units on hand)
-
Product 2 - 5kg (1 unit on hand) & 10kg variants (out of stock)
-
Product 3 (along with other unrelated items) - 100g (50 units available) & 200g variants (25 units on hand).
Is there an app, rule or way to set this up?
Hi @Dante_941 lot of moving parts there, could simply be inventory pooling or sync and customization.
That situation is very custom though most apps are not gonna have something to customize variants titles based including an arbitrary calculation.
Most bundle apps are not quantity maximum limits, or order limit apps etc.
If you ONLY want to change the variant titles to read out unit availability hypothetically this could be done in shopify flow if you spend the time figuring it out reading some shop variable of onhand weight to then update variant titles.
Realistically for titles , inventory sync, or order-limits you need a theme customization and or an automation app.
Either as above to change variant displays, or edit variant titles, and or limit quantities that can be added to a cart ,etc
For custom business automations see usemechanic, an example for syncing:

No specific task for the title editing use case but you can script it.
If you need this consulted on , automation or theme customization then contact me by my email for services.
