What can we create in the Composite Items module?

A Composite item in Zoho erp is a single commodity that is composed of two or more items and/or services. With composite items you can:

  • Create kits and sell them for customized rates.
  • Perform assemblies to create finished goods.

Let’s run through one of many scenarios in which the composite item feature comes in handy.

Scenario: Sam runs a gifting business where he sells curated gift packs during festive seasons. To prepare these gift packs, he first assembles a finished product by combining raw materials using the Assembly feature in Zoho ERP. For example, he assembles a customized electric kettle by bundling its components and the labor cost involved in assembling it. Once the finished product is ready, Sam uses Kit Items to create a gift kit that includes the assembled product along with complementary items such as gift wraps, greeting cards, and discount coupons. He then sells this kit as a single item.
