Introduction

Custom Quantity Driven (CQD) is a feature in PrintXpand that enables customers to place bulk orders for products with multiple variations such as size, color, or other attributes within a single order. Instead of placing separate orders for each variation, customers can simply specify the required quantity for each option directly on the product page.

 

The CQD feature is particularly useful for products such as apparel, promotional merchandise, or other customizable items where customers typically require different sizes or colors in bulk.
