and what is use of inventory kit? thanks
create inventory kits under settings and select this under the items column when making the invoice.
if a box contains 10 items you want to sell separately, then enter the quantity as 0.1
if a box contains 5 items you want to sell separately, then enter the quantity as 0.2
@sharpdrivetek’s explanation of inventory kits is not correct. Inventory kits are for sale of multiple items that are stocked individually but sold together. While the example given may seem to give acceptable results in limited situations, the program has not been tested in that mode. Doing things that way could easily lead to unintended errors on both transactions and in reports. You should never enter inventory quantities except in their defined units of measure. See this Guide for complete information about inventory kits: Use inventory kits | Manager.
If you want to sell both in boxes and as single units, you should create separate inventory items, one for the box and one for the single item. Use production orders to “produce” single items from boxes as you open the boxes. Then, you will be able to transact with either as necessary, including counting boxes and single items, etc. See this Guide for information about production orders: Use production orders to manufacture inventory items | Manager.
