Hello David,

Thanks for the Reply.

I was looking for that too, but this answer is a part of what i am expecting. because I am thinking of a product which is a little bit different from traditional product which we are using in e-commerce (i think so, but may be i am wrong to).

the product is such as :-* configure product, associate with virtual product having some optional feature and also follow the virtualVariantMethodEnum="VV_FEATURETREE".*

is this scenario present in OOTB, for such kind of product (i am not able to find) or any body is working on it.

Please let me know, if i am thinking wrong or going in wrong direction, is this possible in ofbiz or not.

and the main problem is same as explained by Vivek.

Thanks & Regards

Thanks for the reply David,

Here main problem is that how can we add a configurable product in Shopping List from Product detail page cause configurable product is
created when we submit the order.

I am trying to do it with feature tree generation technique.

Kind Regards,

Arpit,

This is a great write-up with lots of detail about your question and issue.

I'm not sure what a good answer is, other than: what you are looking for is different than what is currently implemented so some changes are needed to make it work that way.

Is that the sort of feedback you were looking for? If not, please feel free to follow-up with additional questions.

Hello Jacques, All ,
Thanks for your Suggestion. I just go through explanations of feature explosion mechanism. its really very helpful to me.

as we see shopping list behavior  from two different page
1 from product detail page
2 from show cart page (after add to cart).

But I am still confused about the different behavior of wish list from different page, but IMO it should work same from both place then it will be more significant. Here is the steps that i follow

1. Login with admin and ofbiz
2. Product detail page select all the feature for the product *WG-9943* color:- Black , Size : - 4 Wheel
3 and then click to "*Add to shopping list *"  ,

then in shopping(wish) list page, it Shows the Virtual Product WG-9943 with out feature which I selected from product detail page,
where IMO it should show  *WG-9943-B4*

Wish List also shows the link in the last column with the drop down which contains all variants of that product (as they are available as Finished Goods in data base ). and we can *Replace with available variant.*

Then some doubts as
1.What about that option which I selected from Product Detail Page ?
2.why i will again select the variant which I already selected in previous page before clicking on "Add To Shopping List". ?

OK it is the case for the Variants Explosion Mechanism. As variants are available in data base


But in case of Feature Explosion Mechanism as we know that it will create

1. From product detail page select feature for the product *WG-9944* *color : - black . Size :- 4 Wheel*
2. click on the "Add To Shopping list"

then in shopping(wish) list page we again get the Virtual Product *WG-9944* in the list, and as there is no Variant available in Data Base, so in list there is no variant available (because that variant is created dynamically) , and then when we click on "Add to Cart" button from shopping list page

and will again send us to product detail page with the message : -
"*Choose Variation Before Adding to Cart.*"

but now as the purpose of wish list i can understand that the, one can save the list of product what he wants/ likes to buy in the near future,

and if that shopping list not contain the product with the selected features which was already saved.
It is the current scenario of wish list.


There is one more case where it works fine

for that i followed these steps
        - > Login with admin and ofbiz
        - > Select Features for the product *(WG-9944 / WG-9943)*
        - > click on "Add to Cart" button
        - > then go to "view cart / Show cart" page
        - > select the "check box" for the product
        - > click on "Add to Shopping List"

then go to shopping list page , there we can see it is showing the proper variants for the product.



Thanks & Regards

Actually it works (you get the right price in the shopping list). This is due to how feature explosion works. Look for instance at WG-9943 : you can select the variants and have them clearly in the shopping list.
Please look for explanations about feature explosion mechanism.

Hello All,

In Product Detail page while adding product to the shopping/wish list, it will only take Virtual Product in the shopping/wish list, although we can select the variant for that product. I refer to product as Large Widgets (WG-9944)
is it the proper functionality of wish/shopping list. ?

Please let me know I am wrong about this.

Thanks & Regards
