Track multiple purchase towards single inventory item

Thank you for providing us in-depth details of your inventory concern, smartworx.

In QuickBooks Desktop (Premier, Enterprise, or Accountant) version, we can track the products you build using inventory parts. This allows you to combine inventory parts to build and track finished goods. Also, QuickBooks automatically updates your stock of components and track your pending builds, check and shortages. 

On the other hand, you can convert the item to non-inventory if you don’t want to track the component. However, just set it up as an inventory part if you need to track a component’s quantity.

You can follow the detailed steps in this article to track the products using inventory parts: Track the products you manufacture.
