Module to Allocate Existing Products to Parent/Child Relationship [Erply Sync]

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm looking for someone to supply a quote to build a module where I can create parent/child relationships (combinations) from existing items.

I import from an inventory program (Erply) which imports parent & child products as separate items. I would like to somehow link the child variant to the parent (so it still maintains it's code and individuality as a product) but only have the parent listed on the website which drop down boxes to choose size and colour.

ie. Parent: Dog Collar [DC]

 

Children:

Yellow, Large [DC-Y/L]
Yellow, Small [DC-Y/S]
Blue, Large [DC-B/L]
Blue, Small [DC-B/S]

The result is that I end up with a massive web shop which is hard to navigate.  I'd really like one item Dog Collar [DC] (parent) and then when you click on it an option for a drop down box, radio button etc which links to the various colour/size (children).

 

The module I am currently using to import from Erply (cloud based inventory system) is:

 

Order Management & Inventory Management

  • Developed by : Inventory.com
  • Version :  1.5.1
  • Category :  Migration Tools
  • Description : Order & inventory management backend for PrestaShop

 

Details about the connector/module and information can be obtained here:  http://www.inventory.com/prestashop/integration/ or here http://erply.com/integrations-with-partners/erply-integration-with-prestashop/ (open source info can be found here).

 

 

Here is a link to the website relating to the dog collars:

 

This is the pet category - http://www.rubycube.com.au/index.php?id_category=168&controller=category

 

The picture with the dog is the parent in my inventory program, the pictures of the collars in the dark are all the children.

 

This is the parent product (there is zero for sale as the available stock resides with the children) http://www.rubycube.com.au/index.php?id_product=1059&controller=product

 

This is the child (with no link to the parent) - http://www.rubycube.com.au/index.php?id_product=853&controller=product.

 

What I would like to see is the parent and then the colour or size of the products to select.

 

I don't mind if it happens automatically or if I need to connect the parent & child relationship once imported.

 

My budget is minimal but there are others that are asking the same thing so it might be that we pool funds or make the module available for sale later on.

 

They have an app for the ipad which groups the parent/child relationship https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/pos/id491289593?mt=8 it would be great to do the same thing with the website.

 

Apologies for the lengthy post - please contact me for further information.

 

Thanks,

Jade

Hi.

Can you give a snapshot of the table products from programum erply (in terms of the relationship between parent and child), for example, how you handed? The PrestaShop  can be done as attributes of the product with your own picture and the impact on the price. The basis of what is the relationship between parent and child in the program.

I'm not sure how to provide a snapshot of the products or access the back end.

 

I have attached a couple of videos which show the matrix products in the program
