snake Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I need to bulk update pricing on products which uses configurable options. If I use the bulk pricing updater, this doesn't seem to work, as it only seems to look at the TOTAL price rather than the configurable option price. so if I need to update product x from 3.95 per user to 4.95 per user This is only working for clients who ordered the product with only 1 x user, thus their total is 3.95 anyone who ordered multiple users, no update is made Is there any way to solve this? I have been using WHMCS for over 10 years now, and the bulk updater is still as rubbish as ever, can;t believe it still hasn't been improved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven99 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Well, you could vote on the request for this but I doubt it will be in any release any time soon. Did not find a module on a quick search. As such, a custom solution would be needed, specifically an addon module that loops through services with the option that you are changing and does a recalculate on them. Would have to test to confirm, but using the updateclientproduct API call with just "autorecalc" may do the trick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 I added requests to improve the updater and voted on other such requests many years ago 🙂 If this is not possible, how on earth are all the thousands of companies out there who use WHMCS updating their prices? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven99 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 In WHMCS, if it can't do it you make it do it via hooks, addons, and other such custom modules. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 you need to be a php/whmcs developer to do that 😞 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven99 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) Unfortunately that is the case and you can post in the requests community to find a developer and hire them to do this for you. Edited April 1, 2019 by steven99 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CO pricing isn't stored per hosting service, it's pulled from the current CO pricing that everyone uses - so if that changes, you should just need a recalc for the recurring price. 21 hours ago, steven99 said: In WHMCS, if it can't do it you make it do it via hooks, addons, and other such custom modules. it's always surprised me that no one has produced a proper commercial replacement for the bulk pricing updater - it's like waiting for feature requests, in that you think that they should appear sometime soon, but they never do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 I have gone through every client manually and recalculated. Luckily I didn't have very many on this occasion, but this could be a real nightmare if I was updating something that a lot of customers have purchased. WHMCS is used by thousands of hosts, some of them are HUGE providers, so I have to wonder how they have been dealing with this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
