Creating a Grouped Product for Commerce 2.1 and Earlier Versions

A grouped product consists of two or more products from a catalog that are sold together as a pre-defined set, either for customer convenience or to offer a special price. Grouped products are tracked in inventory and can include any type of products (i.e., Simple, Grouped, Virtual). For example, consider a wholesale furniture distributor. While furniture items can be purchased separately, the distributor can group related products together into a furniture set, either for customer convenience, or to offer special deals.

Note

In addition to grouped products, Liferay supports the creation of product bundles using Product Options. With options, you can define values that link the current product to other SKUs to be purchased together. The final price is calculated based on the option’s configuration. See Creating Product Bundles for more information.
