Variant quantities related to general product.

I dont know it is possible or not in the current version of Hikashop, but here it goes:

I am interested in create many variants of every product, with different stock quantities. But there is a problem: I can introduce a quantity for the general product that works indepediently from the variants quantities, when is obvious, at least for me, that the total amount of the products is the sum of the variant quantities.

Maybe i have misunderstanded something.

Yes, my point is that rather than the general product remains as "unlimited", it updated itself with the sum of the variants. It would be save a few clicks and windows in order to know how much stock you have.

However, it would be nice to have the main product quantity being updated with the sum of the variants individual qty from a back-end listing point of view.

Is this in your todo list ?

Cheers

Just for info, we've successfully used Fabrik ( www.fabrikar.com ) to create the product listing the way we wanted in some minutes and some clicks (Fabrik is a powerfull application builder for Joomla that we have used on various project to achieve quite complex workflow). It can also be considered as a CCK and has lot of feature to easily build an event registration application.

It would be nice to have some kind of connection between these two tremendous products. For example to trigger a "add to cart" from Fabrik with a return value indicating whereas the purchase is made or not (or some user account balance).....

Cheers,
