I need to sell configurable product (allowing to choose size and color) with recurring delivery that happens few time per year.
So first I have created One configurable product with recurring option ON and few simple products under it.
But when I\’m trying to add it to the cart it says “Nominal item can be purchased standalone only. To proceed please remove other items from the quote. “. I\’m only adding one configurable product that has recurring profile to the empty shopping cart.
Okay, I\’m trying another way - turning off recurring option for Configurable product and enabling it for simple products.
Now it adds to card and I can complete checkout process, but in admin it show up as regular order without recurring profile.
Tried turning on recurring option for both: configurable and Simple product - the same error “Nominal item can be purchased standalone only. “
Are there any other options? What can you suggest?
Many thanks in advance!
I have accomplished something similar to this.
Please not this isnt exactly an answer to your problem, but I see you dont have much help here, so Hopefully, if anything, this will get you another way of thinking about it.
You may be able to do this with Bundled products.
Lets say you are selling Tshirts.
Simple item Shirt
Simple item Color
Simple item Embroidery
Bundle item = Custom Tshirt
This will show the Custom Tshirt as a bundled item, and the user will select from the bundle options. For example, sometimes black tshirts are more expensive. So you could set up pricing for those options
Simple Item shirt = $20
Simple Item Color -
Black = $5
White = $0
Simple Item Embroidery = $20
This will allow the customer to create a customized order with specified options.
I apologize if this doesnt help at all, but perhaps it will give you an idea!

So how can i achieve this.any help would be much appreciated.

Create simple product with custom options.
I use Mageworx Advanced Product Options for this.
It allows you to to specify quantity, pricing, images, and more for custom options.
Alternatively you can use Bundled products to accomplish this, by creating the simple products and linking them as a bundled option.
Example.
Bundle item = Europe Tour
Bundled with Simple Items
Simple item = Adult Ticket
Simple item = Child Ticket
This will result in a Europe Tour Product, with a choice for adult and child tickets, and different pricing. You could take this further to customize the Tour more so.
I have just added a product and everything works fine. The product is a top with different attributes: size and color.
However I want to have reduced price on one of the different colors like in a sale, so I went into the associated products section and changed the price. However, whenever I go to the website and click on the color of the reduced price top, it still shows the original price and not the one I just changed.
How can I get it to show the price I changed it to?
Out of the box the only way to do this is via the price offsets for each configurable option under "Super product attributes configuration" as shown in the attached image:
Otherwise, you can use an extension such as Simple Configurable Products http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/simple-configurable-products.html
Go to system > Index Management and reindex Product Prices data
It sounds like you are using a configurable product with associated simple products. As far as I'm aware Magento only refreshes the product price for bundle product types.
I have seen a lot of people recommending this module.
I’m setting up an online clothing store and have come across a huge problem:
When I make at product (a t-shirt for example), I want to be able to add the available sizes and colors, without having to create a product for every single option.
When I add a color or size, I need to be able to enter a SKU for each product, so I can tell which option the customer chose in the store. First I tried making 2 sets of attributes: “Color” and “Size”, so I could multi-select when adding a product. But the attributes didn’t show up as options in the store, as I had hoped.
I did a lot of searching, and found that some people used the “Costom Option” tab, to make fields for the available sizes, colors etc. - but I don’t want add those options every time I add a product. The multi-select feature I accomplished with the attributes, would have been perfect.
Also I found that someone was forced to pay for an extension to accomplish this - but as I am running on a very tight budget, so I really don’t want to pay anything to achieve this.
You can achieve this programmatically, observing the product save and generate all simple products of a configurable product. Unfortunately, you will have to manage stock for those items separately.
You can do this by creating a configurable products. For more information on how to create configurable products please refer to http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/tutorial-creating-a-configurable-product. You can refer to http://www.srota.co for an example.
Background
I am trying to create a possibility on the webshop to create packs of products. A pack is for instance a product (let's say a digital camera) and multiple accessories (extra charger, memory cards, ...). The point is to push the customer into buying the product together with accessories by giving a discount if you buy all these products together.
What I've done so far
I've created a bundled product in magento where each product is a bundle option. This way I managed to display the pack correctly and I'm able to set a special price for the pack as a whole.
Where I need help with
For this pack I should be able to set the price of the children (the option products) for each option. Currently the price can only be set for the whole package and I require it to be changed like a special price. Basically you would have a special price only if it is in a bundle product and the price should be set specifically for the bundle.
By default, a quantity can be set with bundled options, so I guess this can be extended to something where I can set a price. Can anyone point me in the right direction of give me some code examples of how this can be done?
In case this should be necessary, we are running Magento Enterprise 1.9.1.1.
Thanks for your help!
Since nobody came with a solution I will answer my own question... I actually was on the right track and just had to change the price type to "fixed" when you create a new bundled product. That way, the price can be set per item individually which was what I wanted.
The rest was just a simple matter of coding the bundle products to display nicely, f.e. as simple items separated by a "plus" sign or something like that. I also removed the unit prices so only the bundle price is visible, but the prices are still set correctly. Also the base price (bundle price) should be set to 0.
And that was it, not much coding, but more bad luck I started with "dynamic" pricetype instead of "fixed".
Is it possible in Magento to show the price range of simple products as opposed to the price set for the main configurable product.
For example, say we have a t shirt, configurable by size and each with a different price. It doesnt make sense to show a fixed price on the catalog page does it?
I would expect to see something similar to Prices from £3.99.
Does anyone know if this is possible without any custom modification.
I know, it is NOT good solution but worth to try.
Create simple products of each t-shirt based size then group this products like "Polo T-Shirt". Users will see only "Polo T-Shirt" but they can choose what they want from drop-down list.
