Problem: How to convert an Item to another Item?

The Finished Goods tab contains a list of finished goods to be produced for the order. Some items used as material for production may require production - that is, the production process can have stages.

In the Quantity column, you can specify the item quantity and in the Unit column, you can select a UOM for the item:
