4.2.3. Supplementary products

”Supplementary products” are products that the customer should have the option to buy when he chooses a certain product. It can be that the customer should have the option to buy a supplementary product that exactly fits to the article as the customer has ordered. If the customer has ordered a car in your web shop, motor oil could be a relevant supplementary product.

 

Example – Attach Supplementary products


In the following an example will be used to explain how you can attach supplementary products to a product. As an example we attach a “Sweatshirt” to our product “Levi’s T-shirt”. This means that the customer gets the option to buy a Sweatshirt when he buys a Levi’s T-shirt.
 

 

 

1. Attach ”Supplementary product” 
To attach a supplementary product to a product you choose the product in the product catalogue that you want a supplementary product attached to. As we want to attach a “Sweatshirt” to our product “Levi’s T-shirt” we choose “Levi’s T-shirt” in the product catalogue.

2. Product
