Product combination generator (multilayer)

[Teddy's Dad]

Hello all

 

I am having problems using product combination generator (PCG) the way I want to. I am setting up PS for a Pizza store. Here is an example of a problem:

 

Pizzas have 3 sizes  - attribute 1 - size (S, M, L)

You can add 3 toppings to your pizza - attribute 2 - extra toppings (ham, mushroom, etc..)

each extra topping has an extra charge but based on size

 

e.g.

small pizza (no extra toppings) £5.00 (ok)

medium pizza (no extra toppings) £6.00 (ok)

small pizza (1 extra topping) £5.50 (not ok)

medium pizza (1 extra topping) £7.00 (not ok)

 

I can add extra charge for the toppings but it applies to all sizes. I cannot say extra topping with small pizza is £0.50 and the same extra topping with medium pizza is £1.00 and so on.

 

I can think of many industries and endless scenarios where price impact of one attribute is dependent on the value of another attribute. Is there no way of doing this?

 

I cannot enter them manually (faaaaaaaar too many combinations) and now I think the only way is for me to write some code generate these combinations myself and then insert them to DB.

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Best wishes
