Managing Stocks/ATP for bundle products:
- The available stock of a bundle product is calculated by dividing the available stock for each of its individual products/components by the bundle quantity of those components, rounding down to the nearest whole number and then selecting the lowest number. For example: There are two simple products in Anchanto OMS i.e. iPhone XS with available stock of 10 and AirPods with available stock of 20.
- Once you've created the bundle, Anchanto OMS will calculate its stock with the method mentioned at the beginning of the article. In this case, the available stock of the bundle would be 10.
- User can't manage the quantity of bundle product directly. user can adjust inventory levels of components in order to have a new available stock of the bundle.
Note :
- KIT Product is an option exclusively for SelluSeller not for the marketplace.
- When you list the KIT SKU on the marketplace only the primary SKU is visible on the marketplace.
- Once you have done KIT mapping it cannot be unmapped. User will have to delete or deactivate it from OMS
