Charge your customers by the variable size of the item
they are ordering. This MIVA Merchant module is used to calculate
prices on items which are priced, e.g. by the foot,
by the inch, by the gallon, or other units of measure.
This is particularly useful when the store owner does not
want to have a pull down select list of infinite values.
The module also eliminates the common hack that stores
have used which involved using the number of the items
added to the basket to adjust charges. This module
allows the customer to specify the length/size/amount of
an item's attribute on the product (PROD) screen and
still be able to order more than one of that item. Not
for upsell products. For example, ordering four 24 inch
cables involves entering 24 in the length attribute and
entering 4 in the add to basket quantity input.
The store owner determines the storewide number of
free units (if any), and the lowest and the highest values
that can be used in the measurement. The store owner
can also use price groups to vary the size pricing for
applicable customers. The attribute type is text. It
cannot be a template. The attribute prompt can read
whatever the store owner desires to direct the customer
to enter the numeric measurement. If you are using our
Attribute Prompt vs Code module, that prompt will also
display on the basket, invoice and emails instead of the
attribute code. The store owner's settings are
configured in admin.
The customer enters the size/length/amount of units
and the module calculates the price based on the entered
number times the price of the attribute.
You can review the function of this module by entering
a number in the length attribute of
test item.
MMUI and OpenUI compatible. Editing of mv files is not required.
