Compound Items

A compound item, is one that is made up of two or more items from the item catalogue. In ‘Master Catalogue’ click ‘Add: Compound item’.

Master Catalogue
New Compound item

A “New Item” form opens with ‘Compound item’ selected at the top of the page.  Give the item a name.  In this example, we have called it “Compound Brioche”

Scroll down to the section where you can easily add existing items from the catalogue, together with the quantity to include in the pack.
