I have QB Pro 2005 which I just bought and have initially configured. I am an Ebay seller trying to manage sales with the software and here is what I am trying to do with QB but can't quite figure out how to do it (I am not an accounting wiz by any stretch).
I buy large lots of items (what they are isn't important). I never know how many items are in any particular lot and, since I sell the items on Ebay in auction format, I never know what each item from a lot will sell for in advance (I do not use reserves and such). What I figured I could do is, when I buy a large lot, enter the lot in QB using an item number for the lot. Then as items sell from this lot, create individual line item sales tieing the ebay item number to the main lot number somehow. QB would then track sales of the items from the large lot as items from it are sold. But, I cannot seem to figure out a way to tell QB that Ebay item #123456789 comes from lot #6503. Any suggestions? Thanks a million. Gary
