Kit Code | If the item is a kit item, select whether it is a physical
kit, a bundle, or a dynamic physical kit. A physical kit is maintained as a single item. A dynamic physical kit contains individual kit items that may require value-added services to be performed at the node. If you select dynamic physical kit, the Other Services tab is enabled on the Available Services tab. From this tab kitting and de-kitting services can be selected for the creation of appropriate work orders for the kit creation. A bundle can contain items, services, and other bundles. If you select bundle as the kit code, the Components tab is enabled. In the Components tab you can enter product details. When "Enable Logical Kit" is checked, logical kit is listed in the drop-down list. Otherwise only physical kit, dynamic physical kit, and bundle appear in the list. Note: If you select a
kit code for an item an additional Components tab displays in the
Item Details window.
Note: If you
change the kit code for an item, check the component list of the kit
to make sure that the change is correct.
