I have a product that could use another product as an optional 'add-on' feature, and I would like to be able to make a secondary product the optional 'add-on' sale under a primary product.
Example: I make a model wheel. I also make a decal accessory that could be used on the wheel.
Today, if I make a selectable option of "with" and "without" for the decal, under the wheel product, it would force me to create a new SKU number in my company's internal system for 'wheel with decal' as a new assembly. And, I can not control price in the paired situation, as I would like a customer to buy the decal for $1 with a wheel purchase, and $2 for the decal if bought just alone.
Under the primary product, I would like the feature of creating an optional purchase of a secondary product.
So, per my example. The customer can buy the wheel product, and during selction, can add the decal by seleting the "with" option, and get the decal for a special price of $1. When I get the order in, I will see 2 line items of the wheel p/n and the decal p/n at the prices given. That way, our company simply pulls the 2 items as if they were bought separately. no need to make a new p/n for an assembly of both, and no need to keep assemblies in inventory.
I hope that makes sense. It makes the sale of a complimenting product easier, and allows for a price discounting for the customer to buy a product with an accessory. And, in terms of product catalog creating, it makes it easier because I have many products in which this case can exist.
