- 6 sizes: 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20
- 3 colors: Green, Red, Yellowand some exceptions:
- Green is available in size: 18, 19
- Red is available in size: 15, 16, 17
- Yellow is available in size: 18, 19, 20In your ERP you have configured to select first the size then the color.
And the default variant is the first “Green 18”Step 1 : You go to the page of your product.You will have:size:15,16,17,[18],19,20color:[Green],(Red),Yellow[]meanselected()meannotavailableOnly the color Green and Yellow are available because the size 18 is selected.Step 2: Now you select the color YellowYou will have:size:15,16,17,[18],19,20color:Green,(Red),[Yellow]Even if you select the color Yellow the size are now filtered because the second filter cannot affect the first one.Step 3: Now you select the size 16As only the Red color is available for this size you are redirected to the Red shoes and you havesize:15,[16],17,18,19,20color:(Green),[Red],(Yellow)Why not trying to filter the size when changing the color?Allowing this would mean that if you select the size 16 you will have something like this:size:15,[16],17,(18),(19),(20)color:(Green),[Red],(Yellow)And you will be locked in this situation without any possibility to select the Yellow shoes with size 19. There is an order for filling/selecting the value of each options and selecting a value should only impact the next attribute not the previous one.This is the Odoo side ofShopinvader.Table of contentsBug TrackerCreditsBug TrackerBugs are tracked onGitHub Issues.
