Happy New Everyone,

Hamish did say it was taking some time off for New Year (and well deserved time it will be too).  I think he PM'd me so I could forward on the modified files that Early Impact did for me when I originally purchased Productcart.  These are early version 3 files and Hamish was going to see if he can bring these up to latest rev in the next week or so.
 
There were quite a few files affected because of the different areas of productcart where a product can be added to a cart (including BTO files) so I dont think it will be easy to publish a solution on these forums.
When updated I am happy to share the files with anyone who wants them.  I am also happy for EI to incorporate the mod into the next version of PC if they would consider it.  It would certainly help me with future upgrades.
 
Matt

Hamish is a Scotman - they have to take a few days off for New Year due the vast amounts of alchohol they consume at Hogmany !!! Big%20smile
 
Happy New Year everyone !

I do happen to know that Hamish claims wondrous skills with regular expressions, and it would probably be best to await his response.  ]]> Fri, 02 Jan 2009 13:06:19 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/minimum-no-of-units_topic1802_post8093.html#8093 <![CDATA[Minimum no. of units : Would you have any suggestions...]]> https://forum.productcart.com/minimum-no-of-units_topic1802_post8090.html#8090 Author: MattECR

I could be incorrect, but I believe Hamish took a couple days off for the holiday and may not be able to answer until early next week.]]> Fri, 02 Jan 2009 12:14:06 +0000 https://forum.productcart.com/minimum-no-of-units_topic1802_post8088.html#8088 <![CDATA[Minimum no. of units : Hamish, Could you also share...]]> https://forum.productcart.com/minimum-no-of-units_topic1802_post8087.html#8087 Author: MattECR

Hamish,
Could you also share with me how to accomplish this solution?  I have a need that is similar to this.  My actual need is to allow a quantity of any number between 1-99, then increments of 50 after that  Mind if I ask why you PM'd the solution?  I was just thinking, I wouldn't have to bother you if you had just posted the solution here...
 
Also, another thought... Would it be possible to replace the minimum quantity validator with a regular expression validator?  That way we could control the quantity of a product in what ever wacky way we wanted.

Hi Hamish,
 
The inbuilt functionality in PC is very close but unfortunately (and I think rather strangely) is that the multiples must be the same quantity as the minimum quantity.  So it is fine to force a minimum of 10 and then 20, 30, 40, 50 etc but I cannot force a minimum of 20 and then every 10.
 
Thanks for the PM.  I will dig out the files that Cedric sent me for the paid mod and drop them on an email.  I am happy to pay to bring the files up to latest rev because I have never actually made use of my Productcart licence for 18 months and would love to switch my store.

Hi Matt,
    PC has something V close to what you require (I think) built in :
Minimum Quantity to Buy: [        ]   Force purchase of multiples of minimum: []
I'll drop you a PM.

As a follow-up to this thread, possibly useful for others in the future, we recently implemented a "minimum order quantity" feature for a standard store.
 
The requirement that this client was that on a category-by-category basis (but not all products), there was a minimum which could mix within like products.  As the shopper proceeds to checkout.asp, we determine if qualifying products appeared on the order.  Then we examine the quantity ordered for each qualifying group, and display an error instructing the shopper accordingly if their selections did not meet the requirements.
 
A fairly simple mod, possibly useful to others.
