How to create and use item groupsLast updated on 04/14/2022

Technicians can use item groups to create a package of services/tasks that appear as a single line item on the customer invoice. For example, a technician sells a water heater installation but also needs to charge the customer for additional parts to complete the job, as well as a charge to dispose of the previous water heater. If you would like each of these tasks to appear as a single line item on the customer invoice, item groups can be used.

Item groups in the Office

Having an item group does not create new items in your Pricebook. Item grouping is a grouping mechanism to have multiple items appear as a single line item on the customer invoice.
Each individual item will be sent to Quickbooks. The items will not be sent as a group and will not create a new item in Quickbooks.
