Hi,

Article comprising several components structured as a bill of material / article called as Structured Articles, namely; Sets, Prepacks and Display.

Sets: Sets are usually handled in one of the following ways:

(a) As sales sets: The components are packaged together and can often also be sold individually.

Example: Toothpast with Tooth Brush

(b) As price sets: Price sets are formed only by the assignment of a joint sales price. This price is normally lower than the total sales price of each of the components which can always also be sold individually. The components are not packaged together.

Example: Hamper / Three pieces of Soaps / Biscut Packet

Display:Group of single articles or variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. The components are grouped together by the manufacturer or vendor.

In the wholesale trade, displays are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at display level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store.

Example: Candy bars and Pantyhose displays

Prepacks: Group of variants of one or more generic articles that is purchased as a separate article and as such has an article number, a purchase price, and purchase price conditions. Unlike a display, the components must belong to the same merchandise category as the prepack itself. They can be grouped together by the retailer as well as by the manufacturer or vendor.

In the wholesale trade, prepacks are purchased and sold, whereas in the retail trade, only the components are sold. For this reason, stock is managed at prepack level at the distribution center, and at component level at the store

Example: Shoe Prepack
