PIM: Sorting product relations

As an editor or product administrator, it would be helpful if I could sort the related products I've connected to a product.

This would provide me with the possibility to control in what order the customer sees the products to make sure the right products are at the right position.

    We are looking into a solution to this. We see two options and wonder what is most useful.

    1. Manual sort order for each relation created. This means that for each product relation that is created, the user manually needs to set the sort order. For products where no sort order is set, they end up in a more or less random position (like today).

    2. A global boost rank per product that affects the position of a product when it is shown as a related product, but could also potentially affect for example how the product is ranked in a search result when users are searching for products, or the position in a product block. This would mean that the user sets a boost score for a product once and the system takes care of the rest. The control of the precision in the sorting of related products might not be exact but on the other hand it is useful in more scenarios and would save time and clicks for the user.

    Which one do you think would be most useful?

    We have had a couple of different customercases where this would have been a good feature to have in standard Litium. We needed to build some custom handling in order to meet the customer requirements.

    Do Litium have a plan when this will be possible?

    A solution would be to create a text field with the articlenumbers, semi-colon separated to be used insted of the relationship field, feels like the same as the relationship but with sort order control

    Our customer has also expressed desire for this feature to exist as they feel it should be possible to sort more interesting products first

    Abslolutly neccessary, what accessories that are most sold or most wanted by consumer is required. other means of sorting as most sold could also be helpfull.

    For our business, the sorting function is extremely important, so if you can prioritize this, we would be grateful

    This is very desirable.
