Expand/Collapse item  Overview

A kit bill must be defined as a specific inventory item and can consist of any number of component items and comment lines. The primary difference between kit bills and other bill types is that kit bills can only use a single-level bill structure. A kit bill cannot contain a phantom bill as a component and cannot contain any miscellaneous charge codes as components.
