Creating a physical kit item in Sterling Business Center
A physical kit is a combination of multiple components that are not individually defined as catalog items.
About this task
The item availability is only verified for the parent item, and not for the child items. For example, you can create a kit for a computer with all of the corresponding components, such as a processor, screen, monitor, keyboard, and mouse. The buyer does not have the choice of selecting the individual components, but must buy the components as one item.
