Thanks for the info! Yes, all BOM's are empty. We have ONLY used QuickBooks for creating invoices, nothing more. All accounting was done by hand elsewhere, so this has no effect on previous IRS returns, etc as they were done by hand.

Again, for inventory... we really don't have any finished goods inventory. We manufacture mattresses that go out the door within 2 days. Quantity on hand for any given day is minimal. The only "inventory" we have are components (foam, wood, steel, fabric, etc) and we do periodic inventory counts to keep the purchases account accurate.

So for the mattresses we manufacture, you recommend using a Service Item instead of a Non-Inventory Part?? (assuming of course we turn off inventory in QB as well)  Is there a preference / advantage for using Service Item for this type of thing?
