Product bundles
The product bundle is a group of synced or manually added products, the exact weight unit of these products and the grind style should be assigned by the incoming order. It’s a collection of sub-products that are sold in a bundle (e.g. a Xmas or Easter special, Filter coffee special, etc.), those could be different types of coffees, combination of espresso & filter coffees you offer as a “sample” to your B2C customers.
Note: If you integrate your Shopify or WooCommerce shop channel(s), you map your products during the setup procedure. Please refer to the WooCommerce or Shopify integration manuals for more information.

- Now, set a product variation and assign a grind style and weight unit to your product. Assign the weight unit of a single component of your bundle (i.e. 250g).
Note: To select variations for a product, you must first have created and configured a Product attribute(s), set the attribute(s) to the product, and enable the checkbox Used for variations. - Click Save changes to make the variations effective, then Publish the product when ready.
