How to have Multiple Serials Generated from 1 SKU?

Is it possible to take a single SKU (aka CODE) and then generate multiple serial numbers?

Here's the business case:

We have a discount that is applied if more than 3 items are purchased (there are a lot of different possible variants on these).

For the same product, there is a flat price if they want to buy ALL variations of the item - meaning they are going to get a long list of serial numbers, one for each item (lets say 20 or so, but could increase later).

How do we do this with Hikaserial?

Hi Jerome,

But do they have to be of the same exact type?

The business model is that this isn't a volume purchase, but a purchase of a collection serialized products of each type of product in a group of products that has different variant types. Specifically...

An individual product is a type of software driver that works on a single OS, and with a single API. So three OS, and three APIs means 9 unique serial numbers, not a "volume" purchase of 9 serial numbers of one product.

Hi,

I hope its okay if I jump in here as I feel its related.

I have a more manual approach, basically user purchases a product and serial is assigned as TBC (to be confirmed) once the sale is confirmed the serial is assigned. But I've encountered a problem. It works fine if the user adds x1 product but if they add x2 product it should be assigning x2 serials ... but now its still only assigning 1. How can I change it so if user adds more than one of that specific product then depending on how many they've added it gives the same amount of TBC serials?

Hi Jerome,

Sure, so I have a few products, each one has a serial pack attached - for a number. the number is only confirmed after the sale is complete/ confirmed - then the unique number is assigned. This is done manually. So at the moment its using I think attach serial. After the sale is complete. Site admin edit the order (attached serial) and replace the TBC number with the unique number that has been assigned.

But for some reason if a customer purchases more than 1 unit of the product then only one serial is attached - this should ideally be as many serials as product units added.

Hi Jerome,

I appreciate that, but this is a confidential project - can I share these details with you privately?

Thank you
