Price by weight

[Martino00]

I am searching how to set the price by weight.

 

With my productcombinations i can increase the weight of the combination but i would like to change the price depending of the weight of the combination.

 

i could solve my problem if i just could use a formula in the price increase option in my combination but i think it's only possible to increase my price.

 

for example

my product has a general price 10$/kg 

 

the customer can choose the lenght of the product.

i have set the general price of the product to 10$

the lenght of the product is in the combinations

so for lenght x i know that the products weight is 20kg

for lenght y the product weight is 30kg

 

because i know the weight of the products with the lenght i would like to multiply the general price with the weight to calculate the final price

 

 

Because i have to many products and combinations it's not possible to create seperate proucts with their price. so i need the combinations but the prie must be depending of the combination.

 

i hope this is clear.

 

Greetings

You can set impact on price (increase) for every combination. Yes, it is tough job but works. You can update all prices at once through SQL queries. I like to do it via Excel.

Yes i know this is possible. But when the price per kg is changing then i need to recount and update all my price increases of my combinations.

If i can use a formula (or just multiply my general price)  i just need to update the general price

If you will store all prices in an Excel table with SQL queries there, it is just an one-click action.

tuk66 thanks for the quick reply

I know this is possible but it's not a perfect sollution for my problem.

why can't we calculate the price using the weight of the combination?

Because you would need a module for that. Maybe some exists, I don't know.
