Product Multi Links (Template)

This module adds the ability to link product templates together, for example to suggest a complementary product (cross-selling) or a more expensive alternative (up-selling).

You can create link types under Sales > Configuration, giving each a name, an optional inverse name, and a technical code. A link type can be symmetric (same meaning on both sides) or not, in which case you also define the reverse name and code. Two link types are provided by default: Cross Selling and Up Selling.

On a product form, a new button in the button box shows how many product links exist and opens the list of links for that product. Links can also be managed from the dedicated Product Links menu, where you see the source product, the link type and the linked product, with list, kanban and form views.

A wizard called Manage Product Links is available from the product list. It lets you link several selected products together in one operation, or remove all existing links from the selected products.

The module prevents creating a link between a product and itself, and prevents having two links of the same type between the same two products. Only sales managers can create, edit or delete links and link types; other users can only read them.
