Hi! 

We are beginners using Odoo and currently we've our stock listed as products with product variants. 

Right now we would have something like this:

CARD GAME - BOOSTER PACK

  • EX. PACK 1 - 20 units
  • EX. PACK 2 - 15 units
  • EX. PACK 3 - 40 units

And so on...


Our goal was to manage it for POS and it's been working fine but we are now facing problems when jumping into the next step which is selling through Web.

Of course when a user would try to search for a specific booster they would search "CARD GAME EX. PACK 2" for example, and right now as we have our items listed you could only search for a "generic" booster and then inside the listed item you could select which expansion do you want.


This is awful for the customer and we would want to improve it at its best.

So we were wondering, how could we solve this problem?


Some ideas we had were to have two different items which would be linked to the same variant stock, lets say:

  • CARD GAME: EX PACK 1
  • CARD GAME - BOOSTER PACK EX PACK 1 (variant)

Both serving from same stock in case theres some purchase from web or in shop the whole stock gets updated. 

Another would be to list a variant as a standalone product in the web so we wouldn't have to manage two different products.


We don't know if its possible to do any of this solutions but we don't have the knowledge to achieve it, so hope someone could help us!


Best regards!

To improve your product search for the web, consider creating separate products for each variant, as you mentioned. This way, customers can easily find "CARD GAME EX. PACK 2" directly. You can link these products to the same stock, ensuring inventory is synced between POS and web sales. Another option is to enable variant visibility on the web, allowing customers to filter and select their desired variant more easily.

Hello Kalkivi, 

Sorry for the delayed response. We appreciate your help and we would like to implement the first approach but we haven't been able to do so. It's important to say that we're currently using Odoo Online version so don't know if there could be any problem with it.

We'll keep in touch waiting for your response :)

Best regards,

Hi!

This requirement will need some customization. There are two possible approaches:

  1. Display Product Variants as Standalone Products on the Website: Each variant can appear as a separate product, making it easier for customers to search and select.
  2. Use Website Filters or Improved Search: Enhance the search functionality to allow customers to find specific variants easily.

Let me know if you need more details or help with implementation!

Best regards,

Kalkivi
