This extension allows to handle subscribable products with numbers based subscription. This means that you can subscribe to N issues for a subscribable products (eg. magazine). Once a new issue is created and shipped, every subscriptions decrease his remaining issues number. When this number decrease to 1, associated user is notified via email that he has to renew his subscription. When it decrease to 0 subscription become inactive.
- Admin can mark products as subscribable
- Admin can set the number of issues that compose a subscription for each product and variant (default => 12)
- Admin can create issues in each subscribable item (with ability to associate issue with existing products, useful to link issue with backlog products of the same magazine)
- Admin can view, print and mark as shipped the list of subscribed users (which have to receive new issue)
- Keep track of shipped issues for each subscription
- Send mail notification when it remains an issue only to be shipped
- Send mail notification when subscription expires (no remaining issues)
