I am using the product bundle plugin to resolve two issues 1) a single item purchase will contain multiple sku items 2) allow for addons (with associated skus) to be bought in the same main view.
Because of the way product bundles is written, regardless of physical or virtual product item, it will still show up as a line item in the order which throws off inventory management systems like shipstation. There is no corresponding sku in inventory for the main item bought as it contains multiple sub skus to make up the item.
If going down the product group route, then I loose the ability to do product addons at the same time. If going the product addons route, I loose the ability to tie the additional items to a sku.
So I need to have product bundles support this use case.

Thanks for the suggestion about the container like http://hovcoins.online/ this website help me for clinch coins for the game heart of vegas.
here are many technical reasons that require bundled (child) items and bundle container (parent) items to be added to the cart/orders separately.
See https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/bundles/bundles-data-structures-storage/#section-4
The functionality you describe (assembled vs. non-assembled bundles) is already built-in. See https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/bundles/bundles-configuration/#shipping
The “Virtual” option in combination with the “Shipped Individually” bundled product option allows you to create bundles as physical containers. If you leave “Virtual” unchecked, then any bundled item that is not “Shipped Individually” will be assumed to be “assembled” in the bundle container.
This always results in an accurate physical representation when working with the WC Shipping API, but you may have issues with exporting order item data directly. With that said, there is a Shipstation integration in place that allows “assembled” bundles like this to be seen correctly.
Note that Shipstation does NOT support bundle/kit SKUs. Shipstation is not a full-fledged inventory management solution. See https://help.shipstation.com/hc/en-us/articles/206639667-Does-ShipStation-support-inventory-management-
