This process for creating non-inventory items applies only to organizations that are creating items in QuickBooks to sync with Vinosmith.
Please note that your organization's item creation process may differ slightly. If you are not sure of how items are created, please check your integration document or please contact help@vinosmith.com
If your organization is using Item Persistence, create the item in Vinosmith and push it to QB for creation.
The solution is to create a QB Item (ostensibly of type Non-Inventory or even a Service) and set the "Producer" data field to "System".
Once the QB Item has been imported into Vinosmith, you may need to create an inventory record for it if it was not created during the sync.
So to recap:
Add QB Item with a Producer value of “System”
Request a fetch of items so they are imported into Vinosmith
Make sure the item is a non-inventory item.
If it is not, edit the item and uncheck the "Inventory Item?" checkbox
Optionally, create a dummy inventory record with your primary warehouse - any quantity is acceptable
You can now add these items to invoices.
Non-inventory items will not be included on the repot RC6 - Commissions calculator.
Non-inventory items are not displayed in Global Search results but can be included after performing a search.
