How to use
Every product needs detailed information about the base price calculation. There are four attributes which every product has:
- Product amount: Select the amount the product gets selled with quantity 1
- Product unit: Select the unit the product gets selled with
- Reference amount: Select the reference amount the product price has to be calculated with
- Reference unit: Select the reference unit the product price has to be calculated with
Example: You have a product which is a bottle of milk which is 100 ml of size. It costs 2 €.
You want to display the price of milk for 1 l which is 20 €.
Therefore you have to configure your product like the following:
- Product amount: 100
- Product unit: ml
- Reference amount: 1
- Reference unit: l
You can configure the attributes in a product edit mask under the tab Base Price on the left side.
