NickVLD Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hi everybody, i hope someone can help me with the follow problem i'm stuck on; My shop is not a regular webshop, my customers can order only in november and december (We sell consumer fireworks in the Netherlands). At the least 3 days of the year customers can come pick up there orders. When a customer places his order, he can say on wich day he wil come pick up his order ( 29, 30 or 31 december). When i have several orders, i dont know how many products i need on a particuler day. For example; 'Product A' has been sold on all 3 days, on 29 december is sell 5 times 'Product A', on 30 december i sell t 5 times en on 31 december i sell it 5 times. In prestashop i can see that the stock of prestashop now is -15. That is good but, what i want to know is, how much i sold each day without checking each order by hand. I hope the story is clear, oufcourse, of not i'm happy to answer all your questions about it. Thank you in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 I think you will need a custom modification for this. On the other hand, if you can manually keep records, you can use a custom field (product's admin, customization tab) to let customers write their pick up date. Otherwise, as I said you need somebody to code a specific system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickVLD Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Ha Nemo1, thanks for your reply, the customers now needs te select the 'shipping methode' te say wich day the come to pick up there order (so instead of saying shipping it with UPS, now it says pickup day is 29 december). Is it maybe possible to do something with that, or is that also something that can only be done with a custom code? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemoPS Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Well it's always a workaround, but you can add the required customization field as I suggested... though it wouldn't make much difference! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickVLD Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hi Nemo1, aha, i checked out the customization optien but it's not really something that would work in our shop because that would take to much time for the customer. If you or someone else has another idea that would be great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valérie Assetskaya Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hi Nick, We can offer you our service to customize Pre-order module. It provides possibility to set the date when the product will be sold and we can add the option to specify the date when it cannot be purchased. Best regards.

NickVLD Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hi Valérie, actually or customers don't pre-order. They just make an order, pay it an come and get it in or store. The thing is, because of the law the can only get it on 29, 30 or 31 december. When they place the order, the get what they want, we just need to order it. In the Netherlands, pre-ordering is a word/thing that the customer will not understand. What i actually need is an overview of als the ordered items within a carrier. Because an customer selects a carrier (the date the come to pick up the order) and then place the order. Maybe an Excel/CSV is more the thing i'm looking for. Thank you anyway for the idea, maybe something to remind but not really what i'm look for (I know it's a strange request .) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stottycabanas Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Assuming all customers collect their orders, could you make the date an attribute of the product and allow the customer to choose the date that way? The downside is the need to have individual stock quantities per date rather than a single stock quantity for the product. Anyway, something to explore maybe. Cheers, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickVLD Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 Hi Dave, the idea is good, but than the customer can say that het comes to get product 'A' on 29 december and than say that he is coming to get product 'B' on 30 december. Technically it is possible, but for us it would be a dramatic administrative plan. The other point is that i don't think our customers would like to set the pickup dat on every product the order. While thinking on the idea's i get here from you guys, maybe if i can export the orders out of prestashop with the product that are ordered and the selected pick up date would also be an oppurtinity. Then i can filter the export. Thanks so far, i have some new ways to look at this thanks to all of you. Hope someone has some other ideas about this.
