00:00:07:23 - 00:00:10:21
This tutorial looks at the ability
to specify products

00:00:10:21 - 00:00:15:04
for purchase as individual units
or within packs.

00:00:15:06 - 00:00:17:29
We'll take a look at two side by side
products, each

00:00:17:29 - 00:00:20:29
using a different specification.

00:00:21:06 - 00:00:23:28
So we'll begin in the product
variant settings

00:00:23:28 - 00:00:27:20
of these two sample products.

00:00:27:22 - 00:00:31:09
And then all we've done is navigated down
to the inventory section

00:00:31:12 - 00:00:35:13
of the product variant screen,
just to clarify where they are.

00:00:35:15 - 00:00:38:07
I'm just in the product vary in settings

00:00:38:07 - 00:00:44:09
and it's close to the bottom.

00:00:44:12 - 00:00:44:29
Now in here

00:00:44:29 - 00:00:49:06
we have a setting which is called quantity
selector mode.

00:00:49:08 - 00:00:52:17
This option gives the ability
to specify units,

00:00:52:20 - 00:00:57:16
which means a customer can specify
a desired quantity as individual units,

00:00:57:18 - 00:01:00:02
or it can be changed to packs.

00:01:00:02 - 00:01:04:08
And this means admins can specify
how many units are within a pack.

00:01:04:11 - 00:01:10:19
Then customers can specify
how many packs they wish to purchase.

00:01:10:21 - 00:01:10:25
There's

00:01:10:25 - 00:01:13:25
also a couple of additional settings
we need to consider in here.

00:01:13:27 - 00:01:18:05
So even with units selected as we have
with products over on the left hand side,

00:01:18:07 - 00:01:20:01
admins can still specify

00:01:20:01 - 00:01:24:00
whether this product needs to be purchased
in specific quantities.

00:01:24:02 - 00:01:28:04
So the packing quantity field covers
this functionality

00:01:28:06 - 00:01:31:28
with the quantity selector
mode specified as units.

00:01:32:00 - 00:01:36:23
The packing quantity field validates
that the quantity requested by the user

00:01:37:00 - 00:01:41:00
must be multiples of this number.

00:01:41:02 - 00:01:42:16
With the quantity selector mode

00:01:42:16 - 00:01:46:05
set two packs as we have with the product
over on the right hand side,

00:01:46:07 - 00:01:49:09
the packing quantity
field relates to a number of units

00:01:49:09 - 00:01:52:09
within a single pack.

00:01:52:13 - 00:01:56:06
Be mindful as well of other
associated settings such as the default

00:01:56:06 - 00:02:06:06
basket quantity, which must agree
with the packing quantity specifications.

00:02:06:08 - 00:02:09:00
Now let's take a look at these
two products landing pages.

00:02:09:00 - 00:02:12:01
So what we can see
is that the products with units selected

00:02:12:01 - 00:02:16:22
for the one over on the left hand side
is acting as a traditional Infigo product.

00:02:16:23 - 00:02:20:12
What the users can directly enter
the quantity of units

00:02:20:12 - 00:02:26:29
that they wish to add to their baskets

00:02:27:02 - 00:02:29:26
based on these specific settings
that you may have applied.

00:02:29:26 - 00:02:34:23
Warning messages might also be seen
if the quantity that they input

00:02:34:29 - 00:02:40:12
does not agree
with the rules that you've set.

00:02:40:15 - 00:02:43:11
The packed products
that we have over on the right hand side

00:02:43:11 - 00:02:47:00
sees several slight
differences in functionality.

00:02:47:03 - 00:02:49:13
So the quantity that we now enter directly

00:02:49:13 - 00:02:52:27
relates to the number of purchased packs.

00:02:52:29 - 00:02:59:21
So with additional information provided on
how many units that this covers,

00:02:59:23 - 00:03:03:07
in addition,
the availability has been updated

00:03:03:09 - 00:03:10:17
to display pack
related information as well.

00:03:10:19 - 00:03:13:20
Once we've added both of those to basket,
we can also see that

00:03:13:20 - 00:03:18:03
the pack information has also been updated
within the basket screen.
