Kit Orders

Kits are comprised of component items that are associated to a parent item. Kits are useful if the company sells combinations of products. For example, if the company sells stereo systems, you can set up a kit with a parent name of stereo. The stereo kit can contain components such as speakers and a compact disc player, which you typically want to sell together. You can have an item number for the kit that you enter on a purchase order, but the parent item, stereo, is not stocked as an inventory item.

When you enter an item number for a kit, you can review the preselected components and the quantities that comprise the kit. You can also select any optional items that you want to include on the purchase order.

If you change quantity information for the kit, you must manually adjust the corresponding cost information. If you need to cancel component lines, you must cancel each line individually.
