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, you first need to add the main product Refer New Product<LinkId=425> Save Then select Inventory from Main Menu then Product List. Select the product that you wish to add a related part to. This brings up the Product screen Then 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. If you wish to Hide the related part, tick the Hide Radio Button.
Note: If you do not want to see the related part printed on the Sales Order/Invoice click the Hide radio button.
