Inventory Kits

Inventory Kits in Manager.io allow you to bundle multiple inventory items as a single kit for sale, without requiring the items to be physically stored together or pre-assembled. The Inventory Kits feature helps streamline selling and invoicing processes, offers consistent bundle pricing, and eliminates the need for forecasting or physically assembling grouped items ahead of sale.

Navigating to Inventory Kits

To access Inventory Kits:

1. Click the Settings tab.
2. Select Inventory Kits.

Why Use Inventory Kits?

An Inventory Kit provides several advantages:

• Efficiency: Reduces the time required to enter transactions.
• Consistent Pricing: Establishes regular bundle pricing, applying any discounts or premiums automatically.
• Convenience: Eliminates the need to pre-assemble products physically into bundles before selling.
• Demand Simplification: Removes the necessity to forecast demand specifically for kits, keeping inventory management streamlined.

Inventory Kits are not used for manufacturing purposes; instead, they are ideal for promotion and sales convenience. Each individual component can still be sold separately, even if included as part of a kit.

Creating an Inventory Kit

Before creating a kit, ensure all components have been added as individual inventory items in Manager.io. For guidance on adding items, see Inventory Items.

To create a new inventory kit:

1. On the Inventory Kits screen, click the New Inventory Kit button.

2. Enter the required details, including the items that compose the kit, along with quantities and pricing information.
3. Click Create to save the Inventory Kit.

Once defined, your Inventory Kit can be selected and sold in invoices and sales documents just like any individual inventory item.

Inventory Kits themselves do not require physical inventory counts, as only the component items that comprise the kit actually exist as physical inventory.
