Setting up inventory so report shows unit by the case instead of each

CalamityFran · ‎December 18, 2018

Hello. I am new to Quickbooks. I am attempting to set up inventory.

We sell fruit by the case and in individual portions. I created items as inventory parts. I used multiple units of measure. But once I ran the inventory report it displays item inventory but each instead of case. Should these items not be set up as inventory parts?

I have reached out to a few consultants but have not heard back. I am hoping to get this moving soon. Any help or maybe you can point me in the right direction. That would be greatly appreciated.

I can take out your confusion, CalamityFran.

You've set up the items correctly. They should be set up as inventory part. The unit of measure is based on the smallest increment used to track them. That's the reason why it will show as "each" on the report instead of "case".

You can check this article for future reference: Use single and multiple units of measure for items.
