Managing product quantities effectively is essential for businesses selling products with specific quantity requirements. However, the default WooCommerce functionality lacks the flexibility to enforce quantity rules or limit purchases based on predefined conditions, leaving merchants without control over order quantities.

The Smart Product Quantity Plugin for WooCommerce enhances WooCommerce functionality by introducing advanced quantity restrictions.  This enables store owners to set minimum, maximum, and step-based quantity rules, ensuring customers adhere to required purchase limits. Additionally, it introduces powerful restriction options to enforce rules based on user roles and individual customers, giving merchants the flexibility to cater to both B2B and B2C audiences. It also allows customers to add their desired quantity directly from shop and archive pages, giving store owners greater control over the sale of products with diverse requirements.

Detailed Features of the Smart Product Quantity Plugin for WooCommerce

Restrict Product Quantities with General Settings

The general settings provide essential control options, allowing store managers to customize how the plugin functions across the store.

  • Disable Quantity Field on Shop Pages: Hide quantity input fields on shop and archive pages for a cleaner layout.
  • By default, WooCommerce displays a quantity input field next to each product on the shop page. Customers can adjust the quantity of the product they want to purchase directly from this page.
  • With this option enabled, the quantity field will be hidden, leaving only the “Add to Cart” button visible. This simplifies the interface and is ideal for stores that want to enforce single-unit purchases from the shop page or reduce distractions.
  • Custom Checkout Restriction Messages: When a customer tries to proceed to checkout with quantities that fall outside the allowed range, a restriction message will appear on the cart page, notifying them of the issue.
  • You can define two separate messages for the following scenarios:
    • Less than the Minimum Quantity: A message appears if the quantity of a product in the cart is below the minimum allowed limit.
    • Greater than the Maximum Quantity: A message appears if the quantity of a product in the cart exceeds the maximum allowed limit.

Global Rule Settings

The Global Rule Settings in this plugin allow store owners to establish universal quantity-related rules for all products in their WooCommerce store. These rules act as default settings and apply across the entire store unless specific rules are set for individual categories or products. Here’s a breakdown of the features:

  1. Enable Global Rules:
    Activate a set of quantity restrictions that apply universally to all products in the store.
  2. Minimum and Maximum Quantities:
    Set the minimum and maximum number of units a customer is allowed to purchase for any product. For example, customers might be required to buy at least 3 units but no more than 10.
  3. Quantity Steps:
    Define how the quantity can be incremented in the cart. For example:

    • Whole numbers: 2, 4, 6, etc. (increment by 2).
    • Decimal values: 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc. (increment by 0.1).
  4. Field Style Options:
    Customize how customers select quantities on the product page:

    • Dropdown: A pre-defined list of allowed quantities (e.g., 2, 4, 6).
    • Input Field: Customers manually input a number within the allowed range.
  5. Restrict Checkout:
    Prevent customers from proceeding to checkout if their cart contains items that do not comply with the global quantity rules (e.g., purchasing below the minimum or exceeding the maximum limit).

Customizable Quantity Restrictions

With the Restrictions feature, you can apply quantity rules based on specific customer or user role conditions.

  • User Role Restrictions: Limit or enforce quantity rules for roles such as “wholesale customers,” “retail customers,” or “subscribers.” This ensures businesses can cater to varying purchase needs for different user groups.
  • Customer-Specific Rules: Restrict specific customers from purchasing quantities outside the defined parameters, providing targeted control over your store’s buying rules.

These advanced restriction options make the plugin highly suitable for B2B and B2C stores with diverse customer bases.

Category-Level Quantity Restrictions

Create quantity rules at the category level to simplify management. Category-level rules are inherited by all products within the category unless overridden at the product level.

  • Minimum and Maximum Quantities: Define category-wide restrictions for quantities.
  • Inherit Global Rules: Use this option to default to global settings if no specific category-level rules are defined.

Product-Level Quantity Restrictions

Set unique rules for individual products to cater to their specific needs.

  • Rule Status: Choose between:
    • Inherit: Use category-level rules for the product.
    • Unique: Define custom rules for the product.
    • Disable: Exclude the product from quantity restrictions.
  • Custom Quantity Steps: Adjust quantity increments based on product needs. For example, steps can be 1, 2, 3 for whole numbers or 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 for fractional values.
  • Restrict Checkout: Ensure customers cannot proceed to checkout if the product’s quantity in the cart does not meet the rules.

Use Cases

The Smart Product Quantity Plugin is ideal for:

  • Businesses selling items in bulk, where minimum order quantities are required.
  • Stores offering products sold by weight, volume, or fractional units.
  • Retailers needing specific quantity increments for promotions or pricing.
  • Companies with user-specific quantity requirements for wholesale customers or other special roles.
