Lightspeed R Series | Creating Assembly Item

Lightspeed R Series | Creating Assembly Item

An Assembly item in the Lightspeed R Series allows you to bundle multiple inventory items into one finished product. This is commonly used for creating kits, sets, or any product that consists of multiple components.

For example, a gift basket, a bike that includes multiple parts, or a computer setup made of individual components can be created as an assembly item.

 Why Use Assembly Items?

  • Track components and finished goods separately

  • Maintain accurate inventory levels for both components and assembled items

  • Speed up the sales process by selling the complete product as one unit

  • Enable easy kitting for retail and eCommerce

Key Points to Remember

  • Assembly items require all components to exist in your inventory

  • Component stock is reduced only when you assemble the finished item

  • Ideal for kits, bundles, and manufacturing light products

  • Helps maintain the BOM (Bill of Materials) structure in your retail system
