Inventory Items allows your organization to sell products.  Products may or may not have an inventory, and could be books, clothing, jewelry, or downloadable products.  If there is inventory, the AMS can track the quantity on hand across multiple locations.  Inventory Items can also be sold in an online store.

The first step in creating an Inventory Items is creating the Program Code.  You must do that first, and instructions are in the Program Code section of this knowledge base.

When creating your Program Code, the Program, Category and Type, are up to your organization.  Usually Inventoried Items are grouped together in the same Program, like Inventory Items or Store.  If your product has multiple variations, like sizes or colors, you will need to create a Program Code for each variation.
