Packs are used when you have product variants within Shopify. Ex: create a 2 unit pack of the "Car antenna" and link it to the 2 unit variant in Shopify.
To create packages we are going to enter the Packs section of the left panel.
How to make a multi-unit pack of a product
When you click on Add pack, a column will pop up on the right to fill in the fields:
- Title: we will indicate the title of the pack.
- Add product: we will select the main product that we are going to sell in packs and that will already be created in our system.
- Quantity: we will indicate the number of units that are sold in a pack.
We click on + and on Save. If the pack consists only of several units of the same product, we would have already finished creating the pack.
How to link the packs to our store
As with the products, the packs have to be synchronized with the store so that the orders come in and your stock is updated. Read this article if you have created a pack to see how to link it to your store: How to link product packs.
How to edit or delete packs
Once we have created the packs, we can perform different actions on it. We can link, as mentioned above, but we can also do other actions:
- View pack: when you click on this button, it will show you the packs created for that product.
- Edit: the packs configuration column will open again, where you can edit, delete and add new packs.
- Delete: to delete all the packs of a product. Be careful, if you want to delete only one of the packs, for example, delete the pack of 2 units of a T-shirt, but leave the pack of 3 and 4 units, you must do it from the edit button, since this deletes all of them.
