Compositions
A composite product consists of several products or parts. Think of a camera body and a lens. Both can be sold separately, but also as a kit. We call such a kit of body and lens a composite product.
Which variations are there?
Virtual composition
With a virtual composition, the products are located at different locations in the warehouse. At the packing table you put the parts together to send it to the customer as one product.

Composition with own stock
With this composition you produce the product in advance. So it is already ready-to-use on location in the warehouse. You run production to keep stock levels up.

Useful information
- A composite product gets its own product code. Picqer sees this as a separate product.
- If one or more of the parts are not available, the whole assembly will not be shipped.
- You can only remove composite products if they haven't been ordered. If that is the case, you can only make the product inactive.
- You can only change the product type if there is no stock. There can also be no back orders, open purchase orders or open pick lists.
