How Connected Inventory calculates Bundle Master's Product Inventory? What is the Logic (Mathematics)?

Connected Inventory looks at each bundle component inventory and calculates how many of the bundle master you can sell at a maximum.

A few examples to illustrate the idea:

Example #1

Bundle Master: Gift Box

Bundle Component #1: Red Socks, Items (per bundle): 1, Inventory in store: 10

Bundle Component #2: Green Socks, Items (per bundle): 1, Inventory in store: 10

In this example, Bundle Master Inventory will be automatically given a '10'. It is because there are 10 pieces of the bundle components available and the store can sell maximum 10 bundle master.

Example #2

Bundle Master: Gift Box

Bundle Component #1: Red Socks, Items (per bundle): 1, Inventory in store: 9

Bundle Component #2: Green Socks, Items (per bundle): 1, Inventory in store: 10

In this example, Bundle Master Inventory will be automatically given a '9'. Although there are 10 pieces of Green Socks, there are only 9 pieces of Red socks. The store can create maximum 9 Gift boxes.

Example #3

Bundle Master: Mega Gift Box

Bundle Component #1: Red Socks, Items (per bundle): 2, Inventory in store: 10

Bundle Component #2: Green Socks, Items (per bundle): 4, Inventory in store: 100

This is the most complicated example.Each Mega Gift Box contains 2 Red Socks and 4 Green Socks.

There are 10 Red Socks at the store. 10 / 2 per box = 5

There are 100 Green Socks at the store. 100 / 4 per box = 25

There are only enough Red Socks for the shop to sell 5 Mega Gift Box. Thus the bundle master will be given an inventory of 5.
