Introduction – Items

Items are products or services that the company uses in its business. These can be manufactured and/or sold and/or purchased. The item contains the inventory information (unit of measure, SKU, unit cost, unit weight, and so on). If it is manufactured, it also contains the production recipes.

The item’s production recipes can then be used to create cards to be produced in the operations board.

Items can be linked to an item group, which centrally defines several pieces of information shared by all items in the group (type, associated accounts, and so on). For items linked to a group, this information must be modified at the group level rather than in the item form.
