hello,

i currently use quickbooks pro 2007, and until recently, we have been
purchasing wholesale items, and reselling them. this has worked fine for us,
however, we are now manufactures of these products now.

question: how exactly do we setup the inventoried items now that we no
longer purchase them, and how to we track associated expenses to these
items? i suppose ideally, we would like to track costs of goods sold for
each item produced.

thanks in advance :)

Dave.

The simpliest model would have you booking your raw materials to COGS. Then
periodically do a physical inventory and adjust your Inventory & COGS
account for the change in Inventory.

No the simpliest model is to upgrade to QB Premium so the OP can perform
assemblies.
