WooCommerce different id code on same product but different stock batch

    I’m creating a woocommerce store and I have the following problem:

    The shop sells wine, each bottle has a product code and a rotation number. The product code always stays the same, but the rotation number will change every time a new batch of stock is bought in.

    Is it possible to have, for example…

    Merlot: prodId=123 rotationNo=1 inStock=1

    Merlot: prodId=123 rotationNo=2 inStock=12

    These 2 products should never both be visible in the store. When the first batch (rotationNo=1) is sold out the product should automatically begin selling the second batch.

    So if a customer goes to the store and orders 3 bottles of Merlot – 1 should be from rotationNo=1 and 2 should be from rotationNo=2.

    Is this possible?

    With stock management enabled and a variable product, you could manage the SKUs and inventory. However, out of the box, it would not be possible for the system to first sell through the first variation then move to the second – that would require some custom development.

    Thanks – this is what I expected. Do you know of any plugins that might be able to handle this?

    I’ve not seen a plugin that can do this and I can’t find one I’m afraid. It looks like it would require some custom coding to do.

    All the best!

    We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved. If you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
