Hello,
I am new to hikashop and I was wondering if it is able to handle the booking of ferry-boat tickets...
I see that there is a "options" tool for creating addons for a product,
but what I need is quite complex I guess...

base product price
plus options:
choose number of adults
choose number of children
choose type of arrangement (cabin, normal seat...)
choose (if there is) type of vehicle (motorbike, car, ...)

each option should add somethng to the base price, and until here I think I can achieve it with the "options" tool
but what if I have to add a calendar field (choose travel date)?
or if I have to calculate dinamically teh cost of the "arrangement" option depending on the number of adults/children choosen previously?

Hi,

If you want to make a "booking" system, with a specific quantity depending the date, it will be a little bit complicated because you will need to create a variant for each date.
If the quantity per date is not important, it will be easier for the management.

The "item custom field" which allow you to pick a date while adding the product in the cart is a feature of HikaShop Business.

The option system does not allow to select a quantity per option. At this moment I will recommend you to create a option with variant (see our demo website for that). The variants will be the quantity for the number of adults, etc.

The final price will be the price of the product plus the prices of the options.

After that, I see that you mention "tickets". If you want to generate the ticket directly in HikaShop, you can use HikaSerial for that.
