Hello All,
I've been wondering if there's a way to have item groups in Zoho Creator (the same concept as in Zoho Inventory or CRM).
I work in the furniture business, more often than not, a single product can have other product components associated with it.
For example: we might have a sofa that's upholstered in 2 fabrics from different suppliers. Instead of detailing every product in it's own separate line, it would be much easier and simpler to present the sofa (along with its associated fabrics) as a single product line with these components mentioned in the product description field.
So let's say the "Sofa" will be an item Group with product reference Product-1 as follows:
Product-1 : Upholstered Sofa in Fabric A and Fabric B - Quantity : 1 unit
- Product-1-1 : Fabric A
- Product-1-2 : Fabric B
It would be ideal to have Zoho present this information say on an estimate or invoice, instead of taking up extra lines and showing detailed information that is not necessarily important for the client know (such as quantity of fabric used).
At the same time, once we place an order with a supplier, I can create a Purchase Order with the products that are only relevant to the appropriate supplier of that product component and track its order/delivery status. E.g. Product-1-1 : Fabric A belongs to Supplier 123 and Product-1-2 : Fabric B belong to Supplier XYZ.
Is there anything like that? If not, is it in development?
Thanks!
