Customer Requirement

All the lots inside an event should expire with 1-minute difference

– Closing: – Lot 1 closes at 3:01 PM WIB – Lot 2 closes at 3:02 PM WIB – Lot 3 closes at 3:03 PM WIB – Continue this sequence for all lots… until Lot 40 Closes at 3.40 PM WIB

The task required to achieve this
1. Implement functionality to handle event product expiration with options for staggered or simultaneous expiration modes, including interval-based settings.
2. Settings: Event Add Page
  1. Add options to select expiration mode (staggered or simultaneous).
  2. Add input field to define expiration interval in minutes.
  3. Update backend logic to store selected expiration mode and interval settings with the event.
3. Event Save Process
  1. Modify logic to calculate and store product end dates based on the selected expiration mode and interval.
4. Event Details Page:
  1. Check event expiration settings and enable/disable filters or display status text reflecting the current expiration mode and progress.
5. Product Details Page:
  1. Update UI to show “Expired” status for products when their expiration date/time has passed.
6. Cron Job:
  1. Develop cron logic to periodically check and update the expiration status of event products based on the configured mode and intervals.
7. Orders & Notifications:
  1. This is the most complex part to modify and implement.
  2. Implement logic to close the event once all products have expired.
  3. Implement the logic to end the lot in a staggered way.
  4. Trigger appropriate payment processing, order closures, and notifications upon event completion.

Important: Based on our development pipeline availability, we have the following dates available. Please note that these dates are available as of today and will change based on when the payment is made and our availability at that time.

We analyzed your requirements. You need the “Make Offer” functionality, and here is how we can achieve it.

Recap of the workflow you want:

The seller adds an auction product with an offer price and sends it to the admin (site owner) for review.
Upon approval, the product is shown on the website for buyers to offer prices.
Buyer offer price.
The seller can accept & reject the price.
1. Upon rejection, the buyer can make a new offer
2. Upon acceptance, the product will expire with a winner
Once the offer is accepted:
1. The Site Owner will get an extra premium from the buyer
2. Upon successful debit of the premium, the software will send email notifications to the buyer and seller with each other’s details to close the deal offline.

Implementation Details:

We will integrate our software with an “offer plugin”. This plugin might be a paid plugin.
We will have to do the following integration with the offer plugin to achieve your workflow:
1. Modify & update the “Seller – Add Auction form”. The seller can add an auction product with an offer price.
2. Develop a new shortcode to display “Make Offer” products on a new page. This shortcode will list all the “make offer” cars on your website. So, this basically will be the “List page for Make Offer Cars”.
  1. Design a new template that shows offer products
3. Modify the “Product Detail” Page to offer products
  1. Hide the Timer
  2. Design a new “Make Offer” section where users can enter their offers
  3. Display list of offers made on the same page.
  4. Write a new logic to insert a new comment when any offer is submitted by the user. You had specifically requested for this functionality
4. Modify “Seller Submission” page for sellers to review the offers received.
  1. This page will list all the offers received for the products submitted by the seller.
  2. The seller will get an option to accept or reject the offer
5. Modify the “Admin – Edit Product page” for the admin to review the offers received.
6. We need to implement the “Buyer’s Premium” feature on offer products.
7. We need to implement an “offline dealing” feature on offer products.
