How Kits and Bundles work under Commercium?

Here, we will discuss bundle/kit products and how they are managed within your ERP or e-commerce system.

We have launched Kits and Bundles functionality under Commercium's Product listings page.

You can use this page to link a single marketplace listing to multiple component items in your ERP/Ecom platform. When a bundle is sold, Commercium will automatically "translate" the order into its individual child items. This ensures your warehouse picks the correct components and your ERP/ecom inventory remains accurate for every part of the kit.

For example -

You sell one product online, but that product is actually made of multiple items inside your warehouse.

So:

Customer sees 1 listing
Warehouse ships multiple individual items
Inventory is reduced correctly for each item

Here, Commercium automatically breaks (or translates) the bundle into its component items after the order is placed.

Example -

Online marketplace listings Product name is: “Skincare Kit”
SKU shown online: SKIN-KIT-01
Customer buys 1 Skincare Kit.

Inside your ERP / warehouse, that kit actually contains:

1 × Face Wash (SKU: FW-100)
1 × Moisturizer (SKU: MO-200)
1 × Sunscreen (SKU: SS-300)

Impact - What happens after the order is placed

Order comes in as:
- SKIN-KIT-01 × 1
Commercium automatically translates it into:
- FW-100 × 1
- MO-200 × 1
- SS-300 × 1
Warehouse picks 3 separate items, not a single boxed kit

Inventory is reduced for each item individually:
- Face Wash – minus 1
- Moisturizer – minus 1
- Sunscreen – minus 1

Benefits - Why is this useful?

You don’t need to stock pre-packed kits
Warehouse knows exactly what to pick
Inventory stays accurate for every component
One marketplace listing can manage multiple SKUs internally

____________________
Example in Odoo (Bundle / Kit Product) -

Scenario - You sell a bundle product on a marketplace, but in Odoo you want:

Inventory to be reduced for individual items
Warehouse to pick individual products, not a pre-packed box

Step 1: Products in Odoo - Individual products (normal stockable products)

T-Shirt (SKU: TS-01)
Cap (SKU: CAP-01)

Water Bottle (SKU: WB-01)

Each of these has its own stock in Odoo.
Bundle product (Marketplace product)

Product Name: “Merchandise Kit”
SKU: MERCH-KIT
Product Type: Consumable / Service (no stock tracked)
Purpose: Only used for selling on marketplace

Step 2: Create a Bill of Materials (BoM) in Odoo
In Manufacturing → Bill of Materials:

BoM Product: MERCH-KIT
BoM Type: Kit
Components:
- T-Shirt (TS-01) × 1
- Cap (CAP-01) × 1
- Water Bottle (WB-01) × 1

👉 This BoM tells Odoo:

“When this kit is sold, deliver these items instead.”

Step 3: Marketplace Order Comes In
Customer places an order on Amazon / Shopify / Flipkart:

MERCH-KIT × 1

Order is synced into Odoo.

Step 4: Odoo “Translates” the Order
Even though the sales order line shows the kit, the delivery order (picking) will contain:

T-Shirt × 1
Cap × 1
Water Bottle × 1

📦 Warehouse staff sees 3 lines to pick, not 1.

Step 5: Inventory Impact
After delivery validation:

T-Shirt stock → reduced by 1
Cap stock → reduced by 1
Water Bottle stock → reduced by 1
MERCH-KIT stock → not tracked

Inventory stays accurate at component level.

Why Odoo Users Do This?

You don’t need to maintain stock for bundle SKUs
One marketplace SKU can map to many internal SKUs
Easy substitution or quantity change of components
Perfect for combo offers, influencer kits, free gifts

Real-life Use Case (Influencer Example)
You list “Free Sample Kit” on marketplace.

Internally:

Kit SKU price = 0
BoM splits it into:
- Sample Cream × 1
- Sample Serum × 1

Odoo automatically delivers only the actual items, not a boxed kit.

Marketplace shows 1 product → Odoo breaks it into many products → warehouse picks individual items → stock remains correct.
