Relationships - need to add table to some items, messing up quantity

Heather A. shared this question 6 hours ago

Hello,

A few of our items require a 6' table to go with, but we only have a certain # of tables (which can also be rented out separately) we want a table to be removed from inventory when the item is booked.

I was just going to add the table as a child on the required items. I tested this out on 9 hole mini golf, but it changed the quantity (see second screenshot; system allowed me to add min golf on 65267199 even though we only have 1 mini golf and it was already booked on 61120521)

Am I doing this wrong? I need to remove the table from mini golf for now so our staff doesn't overbook the mini golf while I figure this out, but you can see how I set it up and how the mini golf quantity is reflecting the table quantitiy, not the mini golf quantitiy in the lead screenshots

Please help :)7d7af559411fe605e1930550718be086

I would recommend adding the table as a required accessory to the items that require it.

Adding a required amount of 1 will take the table out if the item it is linked to is rented. This is similar to setting it up in a relationship, but will also allow you to add it as a required accessory to multiple items. Relationships will not allow you to add the table as a requirement to multiple items.

You can set up the required accessory like this:

Thank you Brittany - this works great. I see it doesn't add the item as an accessory to the packing list, any way to do that? No big deal if not, we manually listed it in the packing lists items already, just wondering

If you unhide the accessory in the advanced settings, this should allow it to display on the packing list, but will also allow it to display the accessory on the product page and contract/quote templates.

ok thanks - I don't want it on the quote/contract so I'll keep hidden. Thansk for all your help as always!
