Kit/Set Maintenance
Create and manage kit profiles by defining parent products and their child components. Configure quantities, pickability, and build requirements for warehouse kitting operations.
What is Kit/Set Maintenance?
Kit/Set Maintenance is the configuration process for creating kit profiles in JASCI. A kit is a parent product (the finished item customers order) made up of multiple child products (the individual components). Before you can request or build kits, you must first define what each kit contains.
The process has two main steps: First, create the parent product in Product Maintenance—this is the SKU that represents the complete kit. Second, open Kit & Set Profiles to link child products to that parent, specifying quantities and settings for each component.
Case Sensitivity Matters
JASCI is case sensitive when matching product names. When entering the parent product in Kit & Set Profiles, it must match exactly as created in Product Maintenance. "PARENT-KIT" is different from "parent-kit" or "Parent-Kit".
Each child product can be marked as pickable (requires a warehouse pick during build) or non-pickable. You can also flag whether it's a real product(physical item) or virtual. This flexibility supports complex kit configurations including promotional bundles, assembly kits, and subscription boxes.
Kit Structure Components
Understanding the three pieces of a kit configuration
Parent Product
The finished kit SKU that customers order. Created first in Product Maintenance with all standard product attributes.
Child Products
Individual components that make up the kit. Each child has a required quantity per kit build.
Kit Profile
The configuration linking parent to children. Stored in Kit & Set Profiles under the Inventory menu.
Child Product Fields
Required fields when adding children to a kit
Key Capabilities
Full control over kit configuration and structure
Parent Product Creation
Create parent products in Product Maintenance before defining kit profiles. The parent represents the finished kit SKU.
Kit Profile Management
Define kits in Kit & Set Profiles by linking parent products to their component children. Full control over kit configuration.
Child Product Assignment
Add multiple child products to each kit. Specify exact quantities needed per kit for accurate builds.
Pickability Settings
Mark each child as pickable or non-pickable. Control which components require warehouse picks during kit building.
Real Product Flags
Indicate whether child products are "real" physical items or virtual components. Supports complex kit structures.
Kit vs. Set Selection
Choose between Kit or Set profiles. Kits are built on demand; Sets may have different inventory treatment.
Kit Creation Workflow
Six steps from product to complete kit profile
Create Parent Product
Navigate to Setup → Maintenance → Product Maintenance. Create the parent product with all required details.
Access Kit & Set Profiles
Go to Inventory → Kitting → Kit & Set Profiles. Click "New" to create a new kit profile.
Enter Parent Product
In the Parent Product field, enter the exact product name (case sensitive). Select "Kit" as the Kit Set ID.
Save Parent
Click "Save/Update Parent" to create the kit profile. Now ready to add child products.
Add Child Products
Click green "Add" button. Enter child product name, quantity per kit, pickable status, and real product flag.
Save Children
Once all children are assigned, click "Save/Update Child". Kit is ready for requests and builds.
