Phantom bills

A phantom bill is a list of parts commonly used together when assembling a finished good—for example, all the screws, brackets, nails and other hardware needed to assemble a desk. The phantom bill item isn’t stocked in inventory, though it must have an item number before you can create it using the Bill of Materials Maintenance window. The components of a phantom bill aren’t typically sold separately. Because quantities aren’t tracked for phantoms, you can’t use them as a finished good.
