VPCART allows you to set up a structure of dependent products – for example, if a customer adds a specific product to their cart, they cannot checkout without also purchasing one or more dependent products.

Xproductdependentfield |
This is the name of the field in the products table that will hold a list of catalogids that must also be purchased when ordering the current product (eg. 1,5,7). Example field pother5. |
When a customer attempts to checkout, if there are any dependent products, a message appears on the top of the customer information page telling them that they need to purchase dependent products along with a hyperlink. The hyperlink takes them to a list of dependent products that need to be ordered and the customer can then add them to their cart.
