Do You know how to create a Related Product and how to nest related products?
A Related Part is used when you have a main product that you sell and when this product is sold there is a Related Part/Product that is Always sold along with the main product.
- To Add a related part select Inventory from Main Menu then Product List.
- Select the Product that you wish to Add a Related Part to
- From the Product screen select the Related Parts tab at top right of screen
- Enter the Part Name that is to be related then the Quantity that is to be the default.
NB: If you do not want to see the related part Printed on the Sales Order/Invoice click the Hide radio button. You will see the related part in the Sales Order/Invoice on Screen but when you preview/print the related part will not be seen. If there is a value loaded for the related part be aware that the related part will not be seen on the Sales Order/Invoice, but the value will be in the total but no description of the related part shows. It is Recommended to not click Hide if there is a value loaded for the related part.
- You can Nest related parts by adding a New related part to the related part in the same way as above.
- Choose the related part from the Product List then click on Related Parts tab.
- Create a new related Part Name for the Product.
- Be careful not to Relate a product to a related product that has Already Been Established. If the related product is already within the loop EG. Product Monitor .......Related part to Monitor is a Mouse ........Related part to Mouse is a keypad
- You can not add a related part to a keypad of a mouse for example. A warning message will appear to advise you as it would Creat a Circular Reference
- If you are Importing the parts you will not receive this message so be aware of this.
