Display price per unit on variants

Software improvement 5-Done

Okay, folks so it’s been a couple of weeks on this in ‘feedback stage’ so we’re officially closing this for feedback and now updating on the changes that we made relating to community feedback and clarification and what we’ll not be taking forward in this ‘V1.0’ of this feature.

Firstly, there was a fundamental misunderstanding that design made (sorry) about the link between price and unit price* unit price can never be ‘not connected’ to the price. However, producers *in inventory) can create multiple products with different price+unit prices depending if they sell at different prices to different stockists. Therefore, we’ve removed the little chain link icon and column because this was a click function that intended to have you edit price and unit price independently which is not allowed.

Here’s the ‘cleaned’ Figma files: https://www.figma.com/file/JipdbYxaWxDN5i7L1coniF/Unit-Prices-Cleaned-for-dev-pipe?node-id=0%3A1

List of changes for V 1.0

  1. No more chain icon + price/unit price future edit functionality
  2. Added a tooltip box in the ‘add product’ section next to the field for the unit price calculated.
  3. Removed the integer of ‘1’ from the shopper view so it reads: ‘£3.00 / item’ rather than ‘£3.00 / 1 item’

List of considerations for V 1.1

  1. Changing shopper copy from ‘£3.00 / item’ to ’ ‘£3.00 / bunch’ ‘£3.00 / cake’ the display being intelligent enough to discern the ‘item type’ and display that.
  2. Implications on import into the product list
  3. Implications on reports
  4. Implications across other parts of the back office (invoices et.c or other areas user raise once live)
  5. Editable unit price (that then changes the price of a product)

General considerations raised

  1. OFN’s design files in Figma currently don’t work on an ‘accurate’ grid system that corresponds to the FE dev environment. An alignment of button issue was raised. We’re considering what efforts and collaboration is needed to work on accurate grids and numbers in our design files that accurately reflects the FE of OFN.

This is now going into the next part of the design process where design hands over/works with product and dev to create epics and issues :slight_smile:
