Hi,
It would be nice to have VAT splitted in static product bundles extension if products have not same VAT rates.
Product bundles extension is almost great for what I want to do, but I cannot use it because of accountancy issues:
I would like to create a static bundle product with a physical book and cards, and of course a discount.
The issue is that in France (and not only), books and other products have different VAT rates.
Book : VAT = 5.5%
Cards (or other products, even downloadable book) : VAT = 20%

Example:
Book = 30 € (incl VAT 5.5%)
Cards = 20 € (incl VAT 20%)

Bundle product Book + Cards = 40 € instead of 50 €

I don't care about displaying or not the single products prices, even it could be an option to display them or not.
What I suggest is that in the bundle product, we add the prices of single products INSIDE the bundle on the product page.
Thus, it would be easy for you to calculate the VAT amounts.

Bundle product:
- Book = 26 € (incl VAT 5.5%)
- Cards = 14 € (incl VAT 20%)
Total = 40 €
and in cart:
VAT 5.5% = 1.35 € (corresponding to the book)
VAT 20% = 2.34 € (corresponding to the cards)

Of course, we could have several products with same VAT amount inside the bundle product :
- book A (VAT 5.5%)
- book B (VAT 5.5%)
- cards (VAT 20%)
- pen (VAT 20%)
then the VAT amounts would be calculated like this:
VAT 5.5 = VAT Book A + VAT Book B
VAT 20 = VAT cards + VAT pen

exactly the same as if we add different products with different VAT rates in cart.

Thanks

It would be great if single products contained within product bundles could include a quick view option to open the product in a modal window. Currently the options are (a) Click on the single product thumbnail which opens the image in a lightbox (b) Click on a link to open the single product in a new window. I feel it would improve the UX if users were able to view the details of products included in a bundle without having to view a new window. It would be good to have an option to attach quick view to the product thumbnail, title, or a separate quick view button/link.

We have a shipping staff, helping us to manage the orders packing and shipping. We don't want to give him full access to the backend, because we don't want he knows our turnover, or destroy something by a mistake. Also we don't want to give him access to change product pages, or anything else of the shop.

Right now we manage the backend capabilities with WP "user role editor" plugin, made a new user rule and gave the capabilities so he can go to the backend, open and manage orders.
But it doesn't work proper.
What we need is a way which blocks all at the backend, except what needed for manage shipping:
- View and manage orders (best with a good visible product picture, or direct link to frontend product page, if staff need to have a look on what exact is ordered).
- manage stock (but not edit products)
- print invoice, shipping label
I guess this could be helpfull for many growing shops.

Currently you have it set in both extensions so that when more than one product is selected, it appends a 'x 2' or whatever amount is added to the end of the chosen product. Without the 'x 1' by products with only one amount selected it looks very inconsistent.

For products where you are only ever going to have one of each in every choice made this would be fine, but that seems not a use scenario that would be most common. Being able to see the 'x 1' would reduce any confusion that might occur.

Yes, it's assuming people are stupid simple... But it's often the case.
