Convert channel products into a bundle

As most of the channels/marketplaces that Cin7 Orderhive is integrated with, don’t offer support for bundles. So from all the channels/marketplaces, the products are synced as Simple Products in Cin7 Orderhive. However, you can convert your simple products synced from the channels to a bundle with a few easy steps.

Most bundles are listed as individual products on your selling channel. For example, your selling channel can have listings like: Phone, Powerbank, Phone + Powerbank Combo, Red T-Shirt, Blue T-Shirt, T-Shirt - Pack of Two (Red T-Shirt + Blue T-Shirt), listed as separate products. 

Cin7 Orderhive will sync the bundle product also as individual listings/products. To convert the individual simple product into a bundle in Cin7 Orderhive, you need to follow the below steps:

  • Go to the Products section, you will see the list of the products synced/created in Cin7 Orderhive.
  • Now select the simple product listing that you want to convert to a Bundle, using the checkbox, and once it is selected, click on the Bundle button from the bottom menu bar. 

  • Enter the components that you wish to add to the bundle in the pop-up window. While adding the components Cin7 Orderhive will check if the proposed Bundle product has any Unprocessed Sales Orders/ Purchase Orders (Outgoing/Incoming Quantity) present or not. If there are any Outgoing/Incoming quantities, Cin7 Orderhive will not allow to convert it to a bundled product, and it’ll show the error as shown in the screenshot below:

  • You can search the products you wish to add as component products by SKU, Product Name, or Barcode. You can also scan the product’s barcode to search for it. Once the product is added, add the quantity of the component product in the bundle-mix. To remove the added product, use the ‘-’ button right next to the line item.
    For example: 

  • On adding the product, you’ll see it listed above and it’ll give you another box to search and add additional products. You can add more products from there if required. And finally, after adding the required products, click on SAVE.

  • Once you click on save, the Product will be updated and converted to Bundle. The listing will be moved to the Bundle tab on the Products page.

Note: The available stock of a bundle product is calculated by dividing the available stock for each of its individual components by the quantity of that component in a bundle and is then rounded to the lowest whole number. Out of these numbers, the lowest number is considered as the bundle quantity.
