Kit Product child products product movements are affected and their quantity on hand will change every time the Kit Product is sold.
Manufactured Kit Products
When you sell a Manufactured Kit Product, any child products of that Manufactured Kit Product do not show any product movements and their stock levels do not vary. All components are not listed at Point Of Sale and the components are also not listed on the sales order and sales invoice.
The reason for this is that the child products came in as part of that Manufactured Kit Product therefore their stock levels are part and parcel of the Manufactured Kit Product.

Looking at the <Product Movement> for one of the child products of the Manufacture Kit Product
These are movements shown as the price and quantity are contained within the actual Manufactured Kit Product.
N.B If you are drawing part of a component into the making a manufactured kit (i.e. only 10 kg of a 40 kg pack) express the quantity as a fraction of the total unit of the component ( note: not a as percentage). For example if one of your components is purchased in 40 Kg bags and you are making up a mixture containing 10 kg of the 40 kg bag, (for step 9 above), key into the quantity field of <Inserting> the component as the fraction( In this example it would be .25 that is a quarter written as a decimal). This will cause the manufacturing process to take the correct fraction of the whole (and following our example -a quarter or .25 of the total 40kg resulting in 10kg going) into each kit-unit manufactured. The formula is: For fractions of parts divide the child product by the master.
Manufactured Kit Products can be Sold, Stock Adjusted, Credited, Transferred by the Kit or Component.
The stock on hand automatically comes off each product that is part of a manufactured product as each manufactured product is manufactured.
