Using the POS to create kits and decrement inventory

Using the POS to create kits or bundles

1. Navigate to a POS session

2. In this tutorial we are going to decrement inventory to create a product. In order to do this we need to know which "product" we are adding inventory for and which products we will consume in order to add the inventory. For this example I have already created a "kit" called "Aloha Bears". So, I will search for it here.

10. Once all the quantities consumed are entered you will need to discount all the products 100% so you don't have to pay for them. The transfer journal entries will still be made, but at this time we don't want to have to pay for the products because we already have.
