INTRODUCTION
In Agility is a feature that allows the use to combine multiple stock codes into one and this is called a multi-component.
These can be treat as a service item or as a stock code. Suppliers now create these type of codes for example a bath suite or a power tool pack comprising of a drill, battery and a grinder.
CREATE A SERVICE ITEM
This could be where the user is making their own code for a bathroom suite from the current stock.
When the user looks at stock move it is the individual items that are moving and being ordered back into stock.
Create a code in the normal way but select Treat as Service Item.
Before components can be added the parent code needs to be saved.
Buy Price
Not Required, unless supplier provides the Mutli Component as a full suit, for example: some bathroom suppliers provide a price for the full suite. If there is a buy price for the MC code this is used and allocated pro-rata to the components
Sale Price
Required if the flag is not selected Price from components.
