To summarize all my questions ; my question shoud be : is there a way to apply a pack to a group of product that share some fields value in common . for example products that have/share a commomn category value ? By use apply , i mean an easy ( automatic) way to manage this instead create a package of one key for each products ? regard's Last edit: 12 years 2 months ago by [lionel75](/forum/user/11856-lionel75 "View lionel75's Profile").

You edited your message while I wrote my message... You can use the same pack for every product and set a quantity of "1".
