Display Bundle Items on Web Store

Connected Business eCommerce supports product bundles that are sold through the web store. Product bundles are two or more inventory items that are sold together within a single transaction.

Bundle item types that can be processed through the web store include stock, matrix items, and assembly items. Other item types are not currently supported.

  2. On the Inventory module, click Item > Find Item and find the entry from the list. Double click to launch the Item form.

  3. Find the Bundle tab in the item form. Under Setup Components, click on the Item Code field to add the items that are part of the bundle.
