 * On the Website that I am currently working on I am entering product information.
   Some of the products have numerous different variations. I’ve seen other websites
   that have a bunch of different variations for a T-shirt: Size, Cut, Color, Image.
   These websites typically don’t use a single drop down menu or use on/off buttons.
 * One product has the base product (Housing and circuit board) and then has up 
   to 5 other parts installed on it (Sensors installed in slots) and then the option
   of multiple power supplies. Each of these parts has an individual part number
   that could be ordered separately. If i use the standard variable part option 
   and enter each of them individually I’d have a total of 6 different attributes.
   Power supply has 5 options, Slots 1 & 2 has 6 each, and Slots 3-5 has 31 options
   each. If I made a variation for each option it would total out to around 5 million.
 * Is there an option, setting, extension, plugin, etc. that would allow me to enter
   the base unit’s part number and price and then for each of the options they selected
   add a new part number and increase the price by the individual sensors cost?
 * Thanks for the help.

 * Hi [@natwalk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/natwalk/)
 * It sounds like you may want to take a look at using a plugin like Composite Products
 * [https://woocommerce.com/products/composite-products/](https://woocommerce.com/products/composite-products/)
 * This is ideal for creating product kits and assembled products by grouping existing
   products in configurable components. It offers many customization options and
   supports conditional logic.

 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved–
   if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
