Introduction

Assortments are categories that identify groups of items with similar properties. Assortments are used to present a strategic overview of item information in reports.

This overview allows you to view a list of assortments available for your items and the respective assortment information such as the person responsible for the assortment, the revenue account, the cost of goods sold account, and the purchase account. It also allows you to create a new assortment, modify the assortment information and delete the selected assortments.
