Adding Product Kits to a Material Stock Request
A product kit can be added to a material stock request (MSR) in PeopleSoft Inventory in order to:
Transfer a kit from one inventory business unit to another.
Issue a kit directly to a department or location within your organization
Product kits can be added or changed using the Create/Update Stock Request component. You can also change values of the product kit using the Maintain Stock Requests page. You cannot add a product kit to the Express Issue page.
Note: Changing the quantity of a product kit that already exists on an MSR causes the Requested Quantities fields of the individual demand lines to be updated accordingly.
