Hi Community,

May I know whether is there any documentation to explain how does the Service Type in Item works?

I also notice that when the type is service, only the costing method of FIFO works. how come?

    Hi, It looks like you are opening a BC document.

    In BC:

    And some info for NAV:https://www.boyerassoc.com/blog/inventory-item-type-in-dynamics-nav/

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    Hi Inge,

    I notice in the documentation, there is also Non-Inventory in the dropdown list. But I don't see it in my list.. is it a customization?

    Or where can I add it?

    The non-inventory item type was added in a later version than the one you are using. But i linked you to the documentation of the current version.
