chrisf Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Hello everybody, at first, many thanks to everyone who's supporting people at this board, really nice job. in the past I found a lot of answers for different problems here. but now, i can't find anything... and even sorry for some fails. my english isn't the best in these topics i guess my company (a printing shop) is working on a private shop for a big client. the prices for a printing product is always changing with the editions of a product. 500 are more expensive than 1.000, etc... In my case I will do an example with promotion cards. The customer has to pay 59,50€ for 1000 promotion cards. If he would like to order 2000 cards, prestashop says correctly that this will cost 119,00€. But the correct price for 2000 cards is 101,00€ (50,50€ per thousand). Now we're looking for 2 different solutions. One of them is great and would help us a lot! the other one should be a solutions which we could communicate to our client and he has to live with it! The best way, if it's possible...: I can give PS different prices per pices. 1-999 = 0,XXX€ / pc 1000-1999 = 0,YYY€ / pc 2000-2999 = 0,ZZZ€ / pc So, if the customer is ordering 1200 he would get the price 0,YYY€ / pc. And if he would like to order 2500 cards, he would get the price 0,ZZZ€ (it is necessary to type in a price with 3 digits behind the comma, because it could be, that the price per piece is 0,025€ (totally random). if we would rounding it up to 0,03€ there would be a large difference for more editions. if the endprice has 3 digits behind the comma, there is no problem to round it up but not at the price per piece. the client has to order a minimum of 100cards. if there is a solutions in that way, NICE!! otherwise we would accept another way: we can give a product a drop-down-menu or sth like that, where the customer can choose between the numbers of cards he would like to order. for example: we type in a price for 500 cards - price X 1000 cards - price X 1500 cards - price X 2000 cards - price X etc... and the customer can choose one option and the right price type of product will be in the cart. I've posted this question in the german board too. If someone will find a way to get it, i will post it in this thread too, if there are other people, who're looking for the same solution. i thank you all for your help, if we find a nice way to fix it or not.. all the best chrisf Edited March 26, 2013 by chrisf (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocothecat Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 (edited) Is simple keep the options as a fixed drop down attribue this allows you control over what qty the shop sells. Allowing the customer to enter a value could result in a print run that is not cost effective for your client. So I would create attribue groups for "Print Run" 50,100,250,500,1000,1500,2000,2500,5000,10000 and call for price Then apply these to which ever product is relevant along with a price point for each. So my suggestion is to use your second option we can give a product a drop-down-menu or sth like that, where the customer can choose between the numbers of cards he would like to order.for example: we type in a price for 500 cards - price X 1000 cards - price X 1500 cards - price X 2000 cards - price X etc... and the customer can choose one option and the right price type of product will be in the cart. You can do that through attribues Edited March 26, 2013 by cocothecat (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 hey cocothecat wow, this seems nice. check the link, did you mean it like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocothecat Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Yes you can show it like that, the default is to display those options as a drop down rather than bulleted listed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf Posted March 26, 2013 Author Share Posted March 26, 2013 yeah, but i have a problem with the drop-down-menu. it isn't large enough. the customer couldn't see the whole line. :-/ but thank you so much for your advise! this helps a lot and is absolutely fine.

cocothecat Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 so change the width limit on the drop down field? OR change the code to show bullet tabs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
