# Product configuration

For the plugin to know which supplier is responsible for a product, every dropshipping product must be assigned to either a **dedicated supplier** or a **manufacturer** with dropshipping enabled.

## Assigning a supplier to a product <mark style="color:red;">(2)</mark>

Open a product in the administration under:\
**Catalogues > Products > \[Select product]**

On the product page, in the **"General"** section, you will find a new selection field:

| Field                     | Description                                |
| ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| **Dropshipping supplier** | Select and assign a supplier from the list |

Choose the desired supplier from the list of created suppliers.

> **Note:** If no dedicated supplier is selected, the product's **manufacturer** is used — provided it is activated as a dropshipping partner.

***

## Using a manufacturer as a supplier <mark style="color:red;">(1)</mark>

If no dedicated supplier is assigned to a product, the plugin automatically checks the product's manufacturer:

1. Is a manufacturer assigned to the product?
2. Does this manufacturer have "[Enable dropshipping](/dropshipping-bestellung-an-lieferanten-herstelle/english-documentation/manufacturer-configuration.md#activating-a-manufacturer-as-a-dropshipping-partner)" turned on?
3. Does this manufacturer have a recipient email configured?

If all three conditions are met, this manufacturer is used as the supplier.

***

## Summary: Assignment logic

```
Product
  ↓
Does the product have a dedicated supplier (hueb_supplier_id)?
  → YES: Use this supplier
  → NO: Does the product have a manufacturer?
           → YES: Is dropshipping enabled on the manufacturer + email present?
                   → YES: Use this manufacturer as supplier
                   → NO: No dropshipping for this product
           → NO: No dropshipping for this product
```

***

## Product variants

For **variant products**:

* Each variant can have its own dedicated supplier
* If a variant has no supplier assigned, the **main product's** supplier is used
* The manufacturer is also inherited from the main product

***

## Products in the cart

The plugin already checks at **add-to-cart** time whether a minimum order value is configured for the assigned supplier. For more details, see [Minimum order value](/dropshipping-bestellung-an-lieferanten-herstelle/english-documentation/minimum-order-value.md).

***

## Non-dropshipping products in an order

An order may contain both dropshipping and regular products. The plugin only processes products that are assigned to an active dropshipping supplier or manufacturer. All other products are ignored.
