5 Great support
Great extension and amazing support, we use this extension on Magento 2.4.0 and it works perfect. We contacted support to provide extension without MSI support as we keep MSI disabled on our website to improve performance. Within 24 hours we received upgraded version. Couldn't ask for better support than that, well done Scommerce team.

Product description

Manage inventory for Linked or Associated products without any hassle

Compatible with Magento 2 community and enterprise 2.3.3 - 2.4.x including cloud edition

Efficiently Micro Manage Your Inventory with Associated Products

No more inventory management hassles. Associate multiple products to one product and let Magento 2 associated products extension manage product stocks automatically for you.

Inventory Synch issue in user's word

We have several sizes under one product. We have one product that can be sent as XS & S, another one that can be sent as M or L. We want to be able to sync inventory for XS & S and M & L. So if one goes down other one goes down as well and if one increases then the other one does so.It’s very likely that the products which exist as an individual product in your Magento 2 store belong to the same physical product in inventory. For e.g. a T-Shirt can be sold plain or with a customized message or color. For user convenience, most online stores would like to display and sell these products as separate products on the site but, in reality, it affects the same product in inventory. To have correct stock data for analyses, it is very important that the stock of the linked product stay in synch.

How to manage stock for linked and associated products?

Unfortunately, out-of-the-box Magento 2 doesn't provide any solution for this situation but with our Associated or Linked Product Stock Update extension, this can be managed without any problems. The extension lets you set up linking in between products and synchronizes the stock of one on the update of the other. It not only updates the stock but also sets up the stock status of the linked product in case the main product goes out of stock or becomes available.

ASSOCIATE/LINK products in just few steps

The extension let's you to link products in three easy steps. With the installation of extension you will find a new attribute with your products.

  • Step 1. Go to the Product
  • Step 2. Product Association -> Click "Add Product" button
  • Step 3. Product Grid-> Select Produt(s) -> Click "Add Selected Products"
  • Step 4. Save the Product

Above selected products will set up the linking and the stock update will happen automatically.

SCENARIO: 1

“Our customer sells food products. Let's say some of the products are stickers, jars, strawberry jam, and cherry jam. When someone buys a strawberry jam, the stocks for jar and sticker should also go down by one for each. When someone else buys cherry jam, the stocks for same jar and sticker should also go down.”

We can solve this problem by considering jar as the main products. As without jar we won’t be able to sell the product. Now we can create a main product “jar” and set its quantity. Moving on we will create more products like stickers, strawberry jam, cherry jam, and so on. Stickers and jars shouldn’t be visible individually on the site as we are not selling stickers/jars separately. Lastly, we will navigate to “Jar” and under “Product Association” we will select stickers, strawberry jam, and cherry jam. Finally, save, now all these three products are linked together. Now if someone orders a strawberry jam or a cherry jam then 1 quantity will be automatically deducted from all four products.

scenario 1

SCENARIO: 2

A customer asked us “We are using the extension to link the stock of "Natural" color t-shirts to all of our other colors. We dye the t-shirts ourselves, so we want the "Natural" stock to be the master and control all of the other colors. When someone buys a blue t-shirt, the blue and the natural colors should reduce by 1. Likewise, when we add 100 to the stock of the natural t-shirt, the blue, red, green t-shirts should all show 100 in stock.”

We suggested that they can solve this problem by having a configurable product "t-shirt" and all four products as child products. They can make natural T-shirt as the main product and link red, blue, and green from product association. To do that they can navigate to the product Natural T-shirt and edit the product. Then go to the Product Association section and add red, blue, green t-shirts as the associated product. Now all four products are linked so even if one quantity of any of the four t-shirts is purchased then 1 quantity will be deducted from the stock of all four products. Also if they manually set the stock quantity of the main/associated products to 100 for example set natural t-shirt stock to 100 then the stock of all four products will be updated to 100.
