Coding for Gift Baskets

Coding and keeping track of inventory are two of the most important features for any online store.  Specifically, for a store selling gift baskets, or even more specifically wine gift baskets there are quite a few variables at play.  As opposed to so many other inventory control issues out there, the average gift basket business tends to use products in multiple baskets.  That causes a real inventory issue with bad coding, which simply says how many gift baskets of this type do you have available?  It should be asking, what component parts are in this gift basket and treating each of them indivdually.  Unfortunately, not that many programmers are aware of this dramatic difference which can have so much influence on the outcome from one gift basket company to another.
