(Monthly Subscription - SaaS)

Introduction
When managing an on line store built with Joomla and VirtueMart, selecting the right locker for shipping products can become a complex task - especially when an order includes miltiple products with varying dimensions.

To simplily this process, we have developed a custom plugin that automatically calculates the total volume of the products in an order and suggests the most suitable locker, based on the dimensions registered in VirtueMart.

Compatibility: Joomla 5 / VirtueMart 4.4 / PHP 8.2

How the Plugin Works
1. Retrieving Product Dimensions: The plugin reads the products dimensions (Height, Width, Depth) as defined in VirtueMart.
2. Calulating Total Volume: For each product in the order, the plugin calculates the volume using the formula Height x Width x Depth
Then it sums the volumes of all products in the order.
3. Suggesting the Best Locker: The plugin compares the total volume with the list of available lockers (configured by the vendor or store admin)
It then automatically suggests the smaller locker that can fit the order, helping to save space and reduce shipping costs.

Requirements to ensure proper operation:
All products in VirtueMart must have accurate dimensions (Heigh, Width, Depth).
The store administrator or vendor must register the available lockers and their dimentions in the system.

Plugin Benefits
✅ Automatic locker suggestion – Saves time for the store administrator.
✅ Reduces Error – Prevents choosing lockers that are too small for the order.
✅ Improves user experience – Speeds up and optimizes the shipping process.

Conclusion
This plugin for VirtueMart automates the locker selection process, making shipment management faster and more accurate.
If you're using lockers for your shipping, this plugin is a must-have tool that simplifies your workflow.
