Hello, I have an inventory item (a trailer) and now we bought a tarp for the trailer from a different vendor. How can I add the cost of the tarp to the trailer in inventory without increasing the QTY?

The tarp is a separate item, it does not change the original item by any significant means.

 

You sell trailers?  That would be the reason for them in inventory.

Thanks, Rustler. We accumulate all costs on a trailer (service, parts, repairs, etc) so the sales people know how much they need to sell the trailer for to hit a specific margin. For example, a tarp system can easily be $25K which is upwards of 45% of the cost of the trailer purchase. I want to be able to accumulate all costs incurred under the trailer inventory item but any time I add something, it changes the QTY and therefore average cost. Is there any way to enter a Bill without a QTY? I have not been able to do that so far, it always adds QTY 1.
