Hello,

Put your components as not sellable. So it will be impossible to use them in a sale order.

Perhaps you could add a couple tags for “Component” and “Product”?  You could then tag each product as one or the other (or both).  

You can then create two filters for products, each containing one tag (share them if helpful for other users).  Set your product tag filter as default.

Now you can easily change your list between products and components!  And you can use the tags in other reports or dashboards.

Hope this helps,

Bill

Tengo un caso similar: ejemplo, compro cajas de 10 unidades y 20 unidades de cigarros MARLBORO, y vendo normalmente, ahora también vendo menudeo (unidades sueltas) y me gustaría que me recomienden como tengo un buen control de inventarios y las ventas?
Estaba pensando en colocar los packs como kit y las unidades como componentes, aún no lo he probado.

agradeceré tu respuesta

Hi you can use product categories, one category for raw materials and the other for the finished products. Then when you go to products you just group them by categories. 

We thought of that but we have dozens and dozens of material/component categories (not to mention the actual parts) and dozens and dozens of finished products. The way Oddo is now is so goofy. Why not just build products from components like everyone else on the planet?  Oddo does the same thing with customers and vendors and calls them both contacts - also super confusing.  So we found a great app that separates the two.

Now I wish there was something like that to separate materials/components for finished products.
