Parent Variants - quantities

Hiya!

We sell coffee bags and offer several variants of the same product - i.e. whole beans and different grind sizes.

We roast certain coffees only once a week, and therefore have a quantity we’d love to be able to track. Our grind options are set as different variants, and currently all variants are not set with tracked quantities. Since this is all technically coming from the same product, we would love to have the option to set a limit that would affect all varients of a single product.

Is there a way to make a ‘parent’ product - so we could put a quantity on fx ‘Light Roast’ and then customers could choose between different variants. Say they want 1 x whole bean and 1 x ground and that would make the quantity for ‘Light Roast’ go down by two. Is there an app we could use, or a setting already on Shopify we are unaware of?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, we’ve released an app that would work perfectly for your use case. It’s called Fusion Inventory. We have merchants who also sell tea/coffee by weight using the app. Here’s the user guide.

Try it out and feel free to reach out to me over email if you have any questions or concerns. :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @StineDG ,

The Easify Inventory Sync app can simplify managing your coffee bag sizes and grind types. It lets you create groups to sync inventory easily.

There’s also a detailed guide and demo to help you get everything set up :blush: .
