Convert products into new items, perfectly balanced
Product Conversion turns input products into output products with automatic cost-based pricing, a live balance indicator, and real inventory moves — so every conversion is transparent, accurate, and audit-ready.
The problem
Repackaging, kitting, refurbishing, and re-grading all require converting one product into another while keeping inventory value accurate. Spreadsheet workarounds are error-prone, hide whether a price was calculated or guessed, and leave no record for finance to reconcile later.
The solution
Product Conversion gives you a dedicated document with input and output lines, automatic cost-based pricing, a live input-vs-output balance indicator, and real stock moves — so every conversion stays accurate, transparent, and traceable from the first line to the last.
Everything a conversion needs
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Batch Input & Output Lines
Add as many input and output product lines as a conversion needs on one document, all processed together.
Automatic Cost-Based Pricing
Output prices are calculated automatically from the current cost of the input products, so valuation stays accurate without manual math.
Auto vs. Manual Price Badges
Every output price is visibly flagged as system-calculated or user-edited, so you always know which numbers to trust.
Live Balance Indicator
A running badge compares total input value to total output value and flags any surplus or deficit the moment it appears.
Output-to-Input Traceability
Each output line links back to the input product it came from, so the origin of every converted item is always clear.
Real Inventory Moves
Validating a conversion creates real stock moves that consume the inputs and produce the outputs through a dedicated conversion location.
Multi-Currency Support
Every conversion carries its own currency, so international operations can convert and value products correctly.
Full Audit Trail
Every conversion keeps a chatter history and status so finance can review and reconcile exactly what happened and when.
Conversion History
Browse every past conversion in a single list with state and balance shown at a glance for fast reconciliation.

No. Product Conversion is a lightweight alternative for ad-hoc conversions like repackaging, kitting, or re-grading that do not need a full bill-of-materials and routing setup.
