The Soft Solid Unique Product Codes (ss_unique_product_code) add-on for CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor ensures that each product in your store has a unique product code, preventing the duplication of product codes across different products. This is useful for maintaining clear and distinct identification for every item in the store, helping with inventory management, shopping experience, and product availability checks.
The ss_unique_product_code add-on for CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor is a valuable tool for ensuring that each product in your store has a unique identifier. This not only prevents confusion and errors related to duplicated codes but also improves the management of inventory and customer shopping experience. Whether you're running a single-vendor or multi-vendor store, the add-on provides flexible configurations to maintain product code uniqueness, enhancing both the backend management and front-end operations of your store.
Extension to CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor protects you to set the same product code to diffrent products. Every product in shop has its code, that is used during shopping or checking availability. If code typed during creating or editing product exists in shop, it won't be changed and warning will be displayed.
We start from installing the module:
In add-on configuration, we can determine what action should take place upon finding duplicated product code. In Multi-Vendor stores, administrator can also enable if codes have to be unique for entire store, or only for vendor.
When we try to change product code and program detects, that code exists in system, it won't be changed and changes will not be saved.
After finding a product with duplicated code, administrator will be moved there if such option was selected in configuration.
If Product code field is empty, system will not check it.
Key Features and Workflow:
- Installation and Configuration:
- Once the add-on is installed, the store owner can configure settings that determine what action should be taken if a duplicated product code is detected.
- In the Multi-Vendor version, the Admin can choose whether product codes need to be unique across the entire store or just within each vendor's catalog.
- Handling Duplicated Product Codes:
- If a store administrator tries to assign a product code that already exists in the store, the system will prevent the change from being saved.
- A warning message will be displayed to notify the user about the duplication, helping to avoid any errors or confusion.
- Automatic Redirect to Duplicated Product:
- If the system detects a duplicated product code during editing or creation, the Admin can be automatically redirected to the product with the duplicate code, if this option is enabled in the configuration.
- This allows for easy identification and resolution of conflicts, ensuring that no two products share the same code.
- Empty Product Code Field:
- If the product code field is left empty when creating or editing a product, the system will not check for duplicates.
- This feature offers flexibility in cases where a product code is not required or is set to be generated automatically.
- Configuration for Multi-Vendor Stores:
- In a Multi-Vendor setup, the Admin has the option to enforce unique product codes either for the entire store (across all vendors) or only within individual vendor catalogs.
- This allows for more flexibility depending on how the store is structured, ensuring uniqueness while accommodating the multi-vendor environment.
Benefits:
- Prevent Duplicate Product Codes: The add-on ensures that no two products will have the same code, avoiding confusion for both administrators and customers. This helps maintain better organization and management of products.
- Streamlined Inventory and Order Management: With unique product codes, tracking stock levels, orders, and availability becomes more reliable and efficient.
- Customizable Configuration: The flexibility to choose whether the product codes should be unique across the entire store or just within individual vendor catalogs makes this add-on adaptable for different store setups, especially in multi-vendor environments.
- User-Friendly Alerts: The warning and redirection to the duplicate product page make it easy to resolve any issues quickly and without confusion.
- Ensures Consistency: By enforcing unique product codes, this add-on helps to ensure consistency across the product catalog, reducing errors that could arise from code duplication.
