Set Up Product Lines


Setting up Product Lines is the second step in the process of setting up Categories. To review, there are 5 steps to setting up Categories, of which this is the second:

Set Up Tax Codes (should already be performed).

Set Up Product Lines.

Set Up Categories.

Assign Product Lines to Categories.

Set Up and Associate Attributes to Categories.


If you have not set up Tax Codes, do so before setting up Product Lines. Once you have set up Product Lines, proceed to the third step, which is to set up Categories. Do not set up Categories before setting up Product Lines.

Most likely when you set up Tax Codes you created two Tax Codes, Taxable and Non Taxable. With Product Lines you want to do the same thing and create two Product Lines named Taxable and Non Taxable.
