How do I create a product structure?

General

Basic data > Product > Products

When you have added or selected a product, you can start creating its product structure.

It is possible to build up a certain end product from different components/ingredients. The conversion factors and net weights must be entered correctly. If you wish to work with the production and/or specification module, you should also check the net quantity at product level under the tab "Production" and on the tab "General" under "Supplier product".

To get to product from supplier: Go to : Supplier -> Linked Products -> Select the product -> General tab -> Net weight per unit
