This is for a business that does daily sailing tours on a &quot;Tall Ship&quot; that would like to sell tickets online. There are a total of six different tour types, all with different pricing structures for adult, child and infant passengers and each with a different number of tickets available per tour. The company offers up to three tours per day with different tour types being offered on different days. I am guessing that I can use Categories to differentiate between each tour type - A parent category of &quot;Sailing Tours&quot; with child categories for &quot;Noon Sail&quot;, &quot;Afternoon Sail&quot; etc. I also assume that I can use Custom Fields (I have Business Edition) to set pricing for each ticket type and to allow the customer to specify how many of each ticket type they would like to purchase. Pricing could be set using the product table custom field, and ticket quantities could be collected via the Item table. With that structure, each individual tour (for example, the Noon Sail happening on June 1, 2012) would be a Product with a Quantity that matched the number of tickets available for the tour. Customers would specify the desired number of each type of ticket and would receive a total price upon adding the items to their cart.  I am fairly certain I know the answer to this already, but is it possible to create such a configuration without having to write custom code? My PHP skills are fair to average, but I am new to Joomla and have just the vaguest concept of the whole application framework structure...
