Thank you for taking the time to respond. I manually traced and found the transactions by doing the test runs on a day we were not open and had no activity, because I forgot about the "i want to.. view financial transaction" method. Thank you for reminding me.
The service item is not showing in the transaction. But if you think about it, that is to be expected, the 'assembly item' at this point is a single item, and only moves one account to cogs by design... in this case 'inventory - PT- Spirits' to 'COGS - PT Spirits' (and also 'sales' to 'undeposited funds'/'cash in drawer'). I learned that the hard way trying to get an assembly to hit two accounts when sold, it took some head scratching and help from this community to figure that out..
Screenshots are attached.
With that being the case, I think that the service account should be hit when the assembly items are 'built', as that is when my 'inventory- raw materials' items are turned into 'inventory - PT Spirits' by quickbooks. I would think that it is at this time that the service item would also be transferred into the inventory item. I am thinking instead of a 'service', I may want to try a 'non-inventory' item instead.
It would be really nice if the actual financial mechanics of an assembly, it's creation, and subsequent sale were explained better in the documentation.
Finally, thank you for the links to the support center for various products, I always seem to have problems finding the right information.
