Adding Kits

Available from many places including Customer, Inventory, Employee and Vendor, Toolbars appear at the bottom of the screen and provide access to a variety of functions. To activate a function, click on the desired item. Alternatively, to use your keyboard, you may press [Alt]+Letter, or simply the underlined letter by itself. The exception to this is the Save button. You may not press the S by itself; instead, you may use [PgDn].

To add kit parts, select Inventory Inventory from the Main Menu. You will then see the inventory screen. Locate the correct item. (See Navigating Records.) Select Kit from the Toolbar. You will be asked if you want to go into the Parts Manager or Allocate. Press [Enter] on Parts Manager. You will see the following screen:

Select Add to add a new part. A grid view of all of your inventory items will appear. You may search or scroll to the desired item. With it highlighted, select Ok.

You then need to say how many of the item are to be included in the kit. Optionally, you may edit the selling prices and cost.

Select Save when done and Close to exit (or Add if you want to add another part). When you select Close, you will be asked if you want to update the selling prices of the kit item itself. If you say Yes, then the cost of the kit and the 5 price levels will be set to the totals of all of the parts. If you say No, your selling prices will remain untouched; however, the cost figure will update to reflect the changes you made to the parts.
