Simple product in a BOM

how can I have a simple product into a BOM ?
I need that because using the plugin WC composite product and it doesn't considering the product part as composite product...

Hi touch1111

The Composite products plugin is not compatible with ATUM (those products are not shown in Stock Central nor Manufacturing Central).
Although, as far as I know, both can coexist. So you can link BOMs to any standard WC product and add those products to any composite.

But adding a simple product to a BOM is not possible. Only the other way (a BOM to a simple).

Best Regards,

this is exactly what I need.
adding a simple product on a BOM, because I want sell it alone and add as composite module, only simple product are showed as a modules.

I think that I need a custom script to manage the BOM...

That's not possible.
But I don't understand why you want to do so.
Just create a BOM and assign it to a simple, and that simple can be added to the composite or be sold alone. What's the problem with that?
And if the composite products plugin does not allow you to sell the simple product separately, you can create a clone of that product to be able to do so. And link the same BOM to both of them (so they will share the stock and will always be in sync).

I got a simple product A.
product X contains A ( BOM)
product Y could contain A ( composite )

I can add A on composite product Y only if is a simple product, but I can not add a simple product on the BOM of X.

And don't want 2 products ( ghost) for report fake data.

I see...
If what I described doesn't suit you, there is nothing we can do here. I'm sorry.
We don't officially support composite products.
