Create a composite /dummy parent sku

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi there!

hope you can help, the solution our software partners taught us doesnt make sense and seems long winded.

We have some items that we buy and sell in singles, but we also sell these same items in qtys of 10 as is the industry standard.

i would like to be able to make a sku called   G343-3434x10  and assign the child item to it with a qty of 10, this way our automatic online store and telesales can just type in G343-3434x10 on the sales order but the inventory pick will work as normal showing the child skus with the correct qty

i dont require the stock to put together or assembled after picking

    What you're describing won't be possible with standard SKU functionality. Quantity isn't part of a SKU.

    If you don't want to use Assembly or Production best look into Item Unit of Measure, for instance 1 as Base Unit of Measure and 10 as an additional Item Unit of Measure with 10 as Qty. Per Unit of Measure.

    Then add an Item Cross Reference with G343-3434x10 as Cross Reference No. and 10 as Unit of Measure.

    This will however require the use of the Cross Reference field in the Sales Line.
