Set minimum and maximum quantity order rules. You can
establish a required minimum number of each product that
must be ordered. You can also establish a maximum number
of each product that can be in a single order.
The admin control panel permits the store owner to specify
all products (as a wildcard) in a store to have the same
quantity rules or apply individual and different quantity
rules for each product code which will be restrained by
order quantities. For ease of use, the individual product
ranges are entered in a single admin input box rather than
from tabs at the individual edit screens. This allows the
store owner to build the quantity rules in a word processor
and simply copy and paste hundreds of codes into the input
box quickly.
When the customer selects an out-of-range
amount, the quantity is adjusted to fall within the permissable
range and a non-fatal message is displayed telling the
customer that the quantity was adjusted. The store owner
can configure the text in the out-of-range message box or
leave the box out of the store altogether by deleting the
override message text in admin.
Compiled Merchant (4.14 and newer) additional features. New in the compiled version is the ability to change the quantity input
into a drop down select list with multiple values. For example, setting the multiple
to 2 will result in a select list of 2, 4, 6, 8, etc upto the maximum. You can also make a non-equal interval, e.g. 1, 3, 7, 10. Added
token support for the OpenUI Tokens and Viking Coders product templates.
We also have the corresponding module for the 5.x version of Merchant.
