We came across a situation where we need to use the same Item Number for an Inventory and Assembly Item, since some times we need to buy it from suppliers and sometimes we build it. • Have any of you done anything like that? I was wondering what other people are doing.

Hi @mescalante Yes we are doing this and have been for a while, we have Allow Purchase of Assembly Items enabled. It works well, exactly as it says on the tin, and I don't have any specific pitfalls to report. Hope this helps.

Hi Mika, Thank you for the information. Is this "Allow Purchase of Assembly Items" a checkbox in "Enable Features"? I couldn't find this there. Thank you

Hi @mescalante no its in setup accounting actually (Accounting preferences). Then Order Management Subtab, then the Purchasing section. The tickbox should be there.
